I heard about the accident with a chain-link fence but this? Sure you weren't watching Greg Murph's driving again?

NO a guy did, it was a black kingswood with a massive blower and stacks so that the bug catcher is higher than the roof of the car, it was in the burnout comp he bumped the wall then just went spastic and hit like 4 more times, it was pretty funny i got it all on video, apart from the wall bashing it was a friggin awesome burnout!

For a start, cars hitting the guard rail (not a wall) in the Summernats burnout comp is not only regular, but expected (especially when doing donuts in the straight section before the donut pad).

Secondly, It was a CAPA exhibition vehicle that lost control during a drift and hit the fence, injuring several spectators.

I've not read the article, or the thread, not that I need to....I've been one of Chic's henchmen for 20 years.
