Don't worry, happy ending for this clip.

Corner worker who IMO was way too close to the
track, had an eyeful.

My last run, just going that _little_ bit faster, when
I braked while not going perfectly straight. Came
at him at 50mph, but later when I watched the tape
I was pointed at him but sliding away. Anyway a
bit too close!

...and when working a corner, stay to the INSIDE of the corner. Not the outside like the guy in the vid.

I was doing that this weekend. I guess people wanted to skip the 150 degree hairpin, drive off the course in the middle of the offset slalom, and come right at me. At least the had a hundred feet or so to realize i wasn't a cone! Staring between the headlights of a vette isn't fun even if he did slow way down. Of course maybe if my engine would have kept running the whole way around the course i would have been going faster and done it too (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) .
