Raw video, courtesy of Jonathan Davy, shows an accident at the "California 200" off-road race located in Lucerne Valley, Calif. that killed eight people and injured 12 others.

Witnesses say the driver -- identified by authorities as 28-year-old Brett Sloppy of San Marcos -- took a jump in an area known as "the rockpile" at high speed, hit his brakes on landing and rolled sideways into a crowd of hundreds of people standing with no barriers next to the course.
