Then again racing is racing, and to be fair I can understand the DC2 driving being in patient. Seems to go really well for a 195bhp engine, isnt that a stock figure?

4.10 onwards if you cant be bothered to watch the whole thing.

hah
Hmm... racing's racing i suppose, if the mr2 driver had seen him coming up he could of given him more space, however you could argue the mr2 was just taking a wider line and would've been going quicker out of the other end anyway (if the 2 hadn't of collided).
My vid hasn't got sound?

The MR2 took the wider line and tried to come back in.He shouldve checked his mirrors 1st but he didnt and paid the price.Teg was perfectly ok to pull off that manouvre.

dunno really, the teg's line was shit through there... so he wouldn't of gained the position even if the mr2 had taken a wider avoidance line... As proven by the lap previous
by taking that shallow line it meant either, the teg was going to hit the mr2 through there, or the mr2 would stay ahead... Both are pointless for the teg driver.

MR2 went flying 
in response to the original poster, standard DC2 is either 187bhp or 197bhp depending on whether its a UK one or a JDM one.

Its not really a tight bend tho.Both cars can carry speed through the corner.The MR2 would have lost a bit speed if he kept it wide and the teg would have nipped past(going by the way hes kept up through most corners).

I wouldnt argue with Paul J mate
As right as you are its a race not a track day, the MR2 didnt want to lose a place and commited himself to the bend, the integra driver was also fully commited and hence they collided. Both in the wrong really, but as said, racing is racing. Its not particularly wrong it just happens.
