Quarry bend is a tricky one...

Basically you're doing about 110-120 mph down the back straight, then it kinks over a rise and then goes left slightly before the right hander bend you see in the vid.

Some people brake late / lift off while still turning (going into the left) and lose it... and the right hander is a bit off camber so some people lose it the other way.

Ive never had any trouble with quarry. I reckon those people were lifting off over the rise on the slight left hander just before as paul said.

Mental corner, at least you know where to stand if you want some crash action

Some of those look like they're barely getting damaged, if at all, when they hit the tyre wall in that first vid
