that's a problem with using gravel.  the audi was getting out of shape
but was still recoverable until it dug into the gravel, which caused
the car to flip.  it turned a recoverable slide into a rollover.

the tricky part is, how do you make sure you don't flip cars that
go off sideways while at the same time stopping cars that shoot
straight off the track?

i once got very sideways in turn 10 at laguna seca, and put both
rear wheels off the pavement while keeping the front wheels on the
tarmac.  i'm glad there wasn't a gravel pit to flip me over.
