I saw what happend and it looked to me as if the ABS kicked in and he lifted and that is the worst thing you can do with that type of brakes.
I've never actuated the ABS while driving a car equipped with one, but I hear it's a very strange feeling if you are not used to it. i'm thinking that's what happened and he may have just had a split second 'wtf is going on' and that's all it took. aaron is a good driver, maybe he just could have been a little bit more used to the new car before taking it to the limits. he's had it only for a month now.

dave somtimes you have to sacrifice function for form... I guess not when one is as serious about autocrossing as you are. but anyways thanks a lot for helping me out with the my cars toe
that's funny you said that. on my accord forum, the only performance only accord forum, the motto is 'function over form.' do you realize how hard it is to drive around with wheel well gap
not to mention, the front lip also mad it a bit easier to hit cones as it reached out to get 'em.
