You tube roll....
« on: October 02, 2007, 17:10:28 »
Just been down my local inde (AJD @ Nazeing) to get the 110's tracking done - was admiring his comp safari racer, and mentioned that it looked particularly clean and straight.............it's only just been rebuilt after this -

wow. I hope everyone came out unskathed but that second one especially was a hoooooooooooooge roll.

Ouch, and as some one in the 2nd clip said, "thats gotta hurt". Im guessing the body and wallet!

Ilike the way the guy at the front is trying to get it all on camera, rather than run over to try and help them get out.  :evil:  :(bigangry):

I'm happy to report that the occupants in the second one were a bit shaken but otherwise relatively unharmed.  :)  Couldn't quite say the same for the comper though!  #-o

Two very big offs and two very good reason why I wouldn't scrimp on a roll cage!

Cheers

Talking with Andy this afternoon (first clip, yellow motor), the guy filming dumped the camera and went to help - the truck actually carried on rolling further down the hill out of view  :shock:

Andy now has one really bent trailing arm and mashed compomotive alloy on display in his shop............the arm is bent into a very nice 'S' shape !!!!!.............but they did get out of the truck in one piece.

His motor is now fully rebuilt - it runs a short stroke 5.0litre V8, nice  8)
