so what are the chances of this little yellow beauty going for a roll? He must have some Night Rider special effects to pop the driver's side up to miss that white tire!! Kit- eat your heart out!! _________________ Michael

Guy's,
Yes, she went over, several times to be exact. The driver is a fellow competitor in the championship Simon (Simsport) and i compete in. This was at the famous Goodwood circuit. he went a bit too tight to the chichane, clipped the tyres, which then went under the car. Add to this that the spped was close to 90-100 mph, and you can understand why she went over. Sadly, there was very ltittle left of the car once it caame to rest, but the driver was unhurt, so all was well.
Thats racing i guess

Is/was it a 924 or a 944, Steve? I see she's got 944 arches. _________________ 1985 Porsche 924 'Lux', Kalahari Beige (my ex)
