Hope the driver was ok?

Driver walked away after rolling 2.5 times. Video is from my rear facing camera & I gave it to Bob so I assume he posted it on Youtube. Incident happened at Thompson.

Whatever you think about most things Radon, there is no denying it's a very safe car. I have a video I'll dig up of me plowing into Hilton Tallman as he was sideways across Lime Rock front straight. I hit him doing about 85 in the pouring rain. His Mygale has a ton of damage. My nose cone was messed up. The main plane sheared of the nose cone as designed and it was a quick fix. Bob's roller ride would mess up a VD bad IMHO. Like I said, whatever you think of the car, there is no denying it's very safe.

Ok...first; I didn't post it. Not sure who did. Not sure I even wanted it out in the public domain, but I guess nothing is secret in this world.

As to the gory details- the car did everything it was supposed to do. I walked away with no brusies and not even sore. It doesn't have a lot of frame rails on the inside of the cockpit to bang into. Damage was extensive (read total) to the suspension/wheels, etc. Very little with the engine bay frame and body, none to the interior panels and core frame. No apparent deflection to the roll bar, no distortion to the frame, belly pan, and bulkheads.

I have every expectation to have the car back together again before Thanksgiving working only evenings. I have almost all the parts needed and only a couple of things to fabricate (exhaust pipe and one water pipe).

The car is incredibly strong.
