you seem to stand behind the fact that it's usually not the car but the driver's fault
well i agree up to a point...
but until YOU have taken a look at his car mechanically ...i dont htink you can make the assumption that it WASN't his car and it was HIM
I have to agree with you, but only because the car was in a previous wreck. None of us know if the car was rebuilt properly, it could have some issues making it more prone to oversteer (alignment issues, etc).
On the other hand, I can't blame the car for some mechanical issues either as those can be replaced/fixed by the owner before this happens.. that makes it the owners fault as far as I can see (if that was the case here that is, who knows what the actual cause was).
I think to just blame the driver, or the car, without knowing what the condition of the vehicle was and without knowing exactly what happened (for example, an oil spill on the road in the right spot could have caused this, no amount of driving schools will allow you to recover from a no traction situation at 90mph in 10-20 feet) is just as bad as useless bench racing.
Give it a rest and get on with more useful topics IMO.
