Quoted comment by prona: Japanese worthless pieces of trash.
You know what are you saying? It's pretty nice technology(rotary engine) if you ask me, not a few litre engine with brute horsepower. Try to compete with that.
Anyway lucky driver at such speed. It could be muuuch worse.
Ok, So he might have hit 217mph, but it seems they still have a few issues with the braking system. Surely there has to be a better way to stop it rather than flipping it and using the roof of the car as a brake LOL

its creating alot of lift needs more downforce, roll cage did its job though

it has i think a 1.3 liter rotary motor turbo

What a Wankel! lol.

Yeah, atleast he only slid for most of the way... no idea how many flips a car going that fast could do.

At least the parachute was working..i wonder why the driver deployed it
Posted Jul-24-2007 by "Arabguy" (R)
That's a lack of down force. Put some wings on her and she'll ride like a peach.

Nice pun! ;-)
Lovin' the post though - no mention of crash in the title or tags, so an unexpected gift to the LL viewers.
Cheers!
