If anything, lack of experience may cause the driver to turn hard while braking, which would upset the balance of the car. Next thing you know you're sideways on the gravel and the car flips over - it happens.

If you're looking to get on track, maybe you should consider installing a rollbar?
Yeah I get it, stuff does happen even at the professional level. India practice was red flagged because a dog showed up on the track for example.

And its not like I dont have any experience, ive been autoxing for a while and my friend and I have a E30 that weve been driving in amateur leagues. Hoping to go up to semipro this summer (if we can get the sponsoring cash to prep the car for it) Right now its just our spare cash going into tires and such.
Basically just saying that I know exactly what can go wrong haha, ive done half of it already.

But yeah, ive been debating taking the rear seat out and welding myself up a cage for the car.
