Thats just bad driving, no way he should of flipped in those conditions. Looks like he was trying to fishtail the truck on purpose, just overdid and couldnt avoid hitting and flipping. Im sure da will come say something about raptors being a pos but not the trucks fault there.

Seeing that Raptor roll brought a tear to my eye, I don't know how he managed to loose control on such a little drift.

There is a time and place to disable some of the advanced roll and yaw controls in the raptor. There is also something called driving skill and being stupid. I have a feeling this guy hit the trifecta...turned off the advance controls which in the third supplemental manual in the raptor warns against...he is obviously not a good driver...and the third piece.....STUPID.

Wonder how old the driver was and if it actually didn't belong to a family member...
