NASCAR Camping World Truck Series driver Korbin Forrister lost control of his truck coming out of the pits today during practice for the Great Clips 200, giving fellow driver Tyler Reddick a bit of a surprise.

While broadcasters in this clip originally thought Forrister may not have had his steering wheel on all the way, Forrister later told them that he simply miscalculated how the truck would behave when he got on the throttle after shifting into second gear.

Forrister lost the back end of his truck and drove straight into oncoming traffic, and Reddick narrowly avoided Forrister’s grille. Another truck lower on the banking blows past the rear of Forrister’s truck shortly afterwards.

Fortunately, the only thing that may have been damaged in the mishap was the seat in Tyler Reddick’s truck. Code brown!
