Corvette Crashes During An AutoCross Event
This is the first time we've ever witnessed an accident at a speed ventures autocross. It was a pretty fast track and it was his first time up since his last break so the tires were pretty cold & so was the track. Unfortunately the driver never touched his brakes after he lost control. The driver was shaken up quite a bit, but he walked away.

Texas Mile Corvette Crash - March 2011
The Texas Mile record holder for a Corvette at 224mph!
This Corvette was built by Hinson Motorsports - over 1400rwhp
I don't have the 224mph pass on video but I caught the 221mph pass.
It looks like one of the tires went out and caused the car to veer hard to the right. The driver was ok, he walked away from the crash.

Owner and IDOT Trash C5 Corvette, 2:00am, 3/18/11
I heard the screeching tires and the impact from my office, and grabbed the camcorder.
Day-amn! This graduate of the Lance Briggs School of Hi-Performance Driving had hit the retaining wall so hard, it sheared the spokes right off the rim of one of the wheels. Steel and rubber doughnut, anyone?
Clear, dry road, gentle curve, wide, well-marked lanes, beautiful, mild 50-degree Friday morning -- how do they continue to do it? Oh, well, as long as they do, you'll see it here first.
I'll let you be surprised with --- the REST --- of the story. Watch, enjoy, and if you're feeling a little schadenfreude for a Vette owner with too much money and too little common sense, you're human.
1500hp Corvette running on the street!!!
This video contains the first and second race. I should have more footage soon.
Watch at the very beginning of the video and you'll see the Vette laying black marks all the way down the street.
