Seems this guy made a slight turn and suffered the consequences. So is this the result of a TTO?
"This the kind of trouble that can happen in a heartbeat when you have really high grip tires on a Cobra where the driver has yet to learn how to master the car. Lesser grip tires would have never allowed this to happen and would have simply flat spun harmlessly into the grass."
Please play this over several times and then form your final opinions...

Tom Wells, I am not sure who was driving, was this you?
