Simple I dont know if you read my post about how the front and top wings of those cars really cut down on the drivers vertical field of view in banked turns. Not sure of the bank angle on that track but some tracks (bristol) only gives a driver an 24" or so of vertical view in the corners. You come out of a corner with low view point and 50' disappears fast even at 40mph.
Not saying this isn't a sad situation. I just believe it was caused by the young driver and unfortunatly it cost him his life.
