Norris Evo Time Attack crashes (In car Vid)

Another reason to get a proper cage for your track cars...

Glad Simon was okay!

Quote: (from PREMIER on the UK forums)

Well guy's
Some of will know that Simon has been competing in the Castle Combe saloon championship with the old evo 6rss car.

Probably one of the best, if not the best evo 6 around, well not any more , thank god for the proper roll cage
Simon is fine apart from a sore neck which I'm sure will be worse tomorrow.
Anyway, here is the in car video, doesn’t look to bad from inside but trust me it was, looking at the loggings it was 80 -85mph while flipping and rolling, the car was that high in the air it almost cleared the new catch fence on the start line (15ft hight)
Wrong place wrong time by the looks of it, the back marker is blocked out of view by the other two cars and left Si running out of track.

holy sh**t that photo of the car just hanging in the air is crazy. Is there video footage from outside the car? It's hard to imagine he would flip that hard from the tiny bump into the red car.
