Bathurst Supersprint December 2006

[KE70-from-mt-panorama]

I was searching in Ke70.com today and i came across a picture of a car in the air upside down. i looked in the background and saw this was at Mt panorama. i then looked at the location of the track and realised that this was the car my mate was telling me about from the supersprint. i had only seen the aftermath pictures prior.

 

 

^^^This was the pic i found at ke70.com

 

 

If you look at it, the passengers head rest saved the guy from getting crushed.

 

 

Just got to imagine how fast he would have been going. would have been fun before getting airborne.

But Still must question....Why did he not go straight ahead into the 50000km of sandtrap?????

 

He Should be happy, his marks are still on the ripple strip to this day.

 

Cheers

Jake

 

P.S

I can get more images of the supersprint if anyone is interested.

Seen this one a while back (I think it was on here). He didn't go into the sandtrap because he clipped the curb while turning which is what turn him over

Had a quick look through the forums and found the post about this incident.

Not meaning to slag you off or you might have done it this way, the supersprint was on the 1st of december. so it couldnt have possibly been posted up before that. so start there and work your way back to the present. wasnt too far from 1st december so it was a quick look.

Cheers
