What i find strange is the first "impact" seems quite a bit slower than the others, like maybe it was user error then the throttle control went out of whack. Weird the air bags dont seem to go off either. - Paul G.

Isn't that thing on MT's top ten this year? My wacko next door neighbor just bought one of those. I think I need to up the coverage on my cars to include damage whilst parked.

Hay bales were the Safer barrier of the era.Without any roll over protection,I can see why they didn't strap in...better to be throw clear..hopefully...wow...

Re: Funny motorsport videos... ?
Pretty amazing but that car was back on track that afternoon with minimal damage. There was a discussion on the NASA forums with commentary from the driver.

That's pretty cool he made it back out. I wonder how they determined his safety belts and such hadn't stretched from the impact. He is very lucky he didn't roll over. - Paul G.
