Got too happy knowing you could pass someone, forgot about the turn ahead.

These guys covered what I was going to say as well. I'd usually say that "if you don't have an off once in a while, you aren't pushing yourself hard enough" - but like KingBaby, I think this was just a loss of focus on your course route and your line/speed choices because of the pass.
Have some other vids we can see? I love watching other folks' laps at the track.

I have
at this Turn i was in battle with a Mazda RX8 which has 250 HP, race supension and Michelin Cup wheels (i have Michelin PSS). dont know what is the weight from the RX8, but should be much lighter than my Lady. my car is almost stock, im working on it for a tracktool. track is Motopark Oschersleben.
the last time there was a VW Polo who shows me his exhaust from behind. there are much lightweight tracktools which are difficult to pass with that heavyweight 350z.
It happens. Glad to see that you and the Z were ok. Also, it's always nice to see a Z on the track.
im glad too saturday i will drive in Hockenheim, some of you should know it from Formula 1. the last two times my brakes have become very hot there. hope i can end a turn this time. i will post the video if anyone is interested.

track.
Help a new driver analyze the turn please.
To me, it looked like it was not a line/speed issue. I think it was a good "race line" which is different than the ideal line. I felt that the spin was induced by good old oversteer resulting from the massive off throttle weight shift he initiated.

Please correct me and explain
what you cant see on this video is, the Civic is almost side by side. i just have to open the wheel little bit more in the curve. there is to much weight on the front for this steering angle. next time i just have to give a little bit more gas to get the weight in balance.
