I mentioned this before in the Audi R8 crash thread.
The problem now is that performance vehicles these days have so much grip, so much traction, have very high limits and are so easy to drive. So their rich owners will push and push and push, till they run out of talent, and when that happens, they are usually going really really fast and therefore they are going to crash, big time.
It is easier last time when sports cars and super cars were seriously scary beasts. Them rich bastards don't dare take them out of 1st gear because of that.
