Title: High profile shunts Post by: vwhelmot on May 30, 2016, 12:32:30 pm Bad weekend for a few racers this weekend. Sorry to hear Richie Webb and Kris Lauffer had some fenderbenders but glad both are ok. Hope they can rebuild their cars and move forward.

Title: Re: High profile shunts Post by: Neil Davies on May 30, 2016, 20:28:09 pm Looking at Eurodragster, Richie was the third car to hit the guardrail there this weekend - Roger Johannsen in a Pro Mod and Paul Hudson in another Super Comp car, so all sub-8.9's. From what I read, all three turned right after the finish line. The Pro Mod driver was worst hurt with a broken leg but he hit at over 200mph. The other two were ok I think but hopefully Richie will be on later to let us know.

If his car was a bit more forward he would have hit face first into the rail... That looked really scary Title: Re: High profile shunts Post by: mg on May 31, 2016, 14:58:23 pm Kris's in car video, just got loose at the end of the run?
Nice to see him jump out unhurt. 8) https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCO6riVPOOrwrm7P-rn7enTQ Title: Re: High profile shunts Post by: leec on May 31, 2016, 15:06:24 pm Scary stuff. Glad he walked away
