How long did you spend searching tinterwebz' for that pic mate? :tt2:

 

Bout 0 mins as had it already in my photos folder lol

Serious question

 

How effective do you reckon, would a full weld in roll cage (with twin side bars) have been, in that smash?

very serious reply.

 

a friend of mine sorted out through her job for her dad to go out in a rally car, on the road between rally stages. unfortunatly they ****ed up lost it and hit a bridge sideways, he was in and out and touch and go for a while and now she is his carer, as he cannot do much himself. that was a full caged out fia approved rally car. ive also seen rally cars with my own eyes hit a tree at a fair whack roll etc and the driver walk away with simply a bruised ego.

its partly luck of the draw no matter how tough the car and its safety shell are. i believe and do quote me on it, but a hell of alot of potential damage is done to the human body from the rapid deceleration of hitting an imovible object. regaurdless of wether is crushes you or not, hence the design of crumple zones etc etc. zeds a re built strong they do protect the driver pretty well with the safety shell. sadly though a side on impact is a different kettle of fish. if hed of been on the other side he would of been dead almost instantly i recon.

Looks like slick pete's Z before he fixed it :lol:

to bend the floor that far into the car over the prop is some serious wallop, very lucky it wasnt a right hand drive, there would have been no other final result than game over.

decent wheels though.

A sad story there mate and I agree 100% on your comments.

Looks like slick pete's Z before he fixed it :lol:

 

LOL!!!!

 

on a serious note. The impact my slicktop had was relatively lowish speed in to a lampost. Yaseen was not injured.

The intrusion of the post was around 6"

Compare the damage to this one being discussed. The speed this car must have been doing to cause that impact is mindblowing

those wheels would look quite nice if they hadnt ended up pretty much square shaped

Bloody hell:shock: Love to know what actually happened? maybe they are selling an interior light bulb
