[Nick Brad]

Trials are under way for the latest safety and recovery vehicles in Florida, if successful we may see them implemented at Rockingham in 2008.

Intense the way that #70 came apart

It is quite bad to look at, but I wonder what some of our crashes would be like if we had steel panels instead of fibreglass....

I spoke to the guy driving that a couple of years ago, absolutely bonkers!

Nice idea, but I don't think it carries enough kit for our needs. :)

I couldn't believe it, that's probably by far the biggest crash that poor guy's ever had and the first vehicle on the scene is a rail buggy. What practical use did it actually have? :laugh:

He very nearly becomes part of the accident. I wouldn't want to be sitting in that with even that small piece of debris coming at me.

Woah, I couldn't believe that, I just watched again and saw the debris, you can't see exactly where it lands either. :eek:
