Ford Escort RS Cosworth Accident Gumball 3000

[fairman308]

There's Roy of polizei running. Guess the escort driver was a bit of a dumbass that rally

[griggzy25]

The reson this happened is because he took the spoiler off and have no down force to keep him down

[Spoonerqwerty]

@TerryMMA85 thats a bit harsh, martin is a great bloke and this car still lives on, at over 200mph without nitrus

[crispy380]

that's what happens when you have half your tires on dirt and the other half on tarmac along with not turning your wheel properly.

[NLterror6000]

@TerryMMA85 Yea dude an Escord with 4wd and 220hp 310nm torque, and its an limited edition.

If you wanna buy that car in a good state, gonna cost u about 30k $

There was a guy in gumball once cruizing and old vw bus

[K20a3RSX]

Wow that police officer...

[Padge92]

i hate when the cameraman filmed down right when the action happens ... -.-

[0tispunkm3y3r]

@TerryMMA85

I believe that particular car had a faster 0-60 than the enzo's on that same trip. It was a bloody fast machine in its own right. Shame he was driving like a complete tool and binned it. Alex Roy in the M5 is the driving god of the gumball rally hands down... very thorough in his planning and equipment and doesnt need to turn up in the latest ferrari to do it.

[omega3litre]

i dont know what happened ?

haha i will tell you what happened you booted it in the dust and dirt span the back tyres up and lost control drivers limit (reached) cars no where near 

[blackcat89]

haha look at that officer run in hislady boots

[WeirdNeville]

@blackcat89 Errr, that's Alex Roy, the driver of the "Team Polezei" BMW M5 and his girlfriend. They were dressed as Canadian Mounties that year. They're not the police. Though they are hard t otell from some of the morocco police.

[blackcat89]

@WeirdNeville oh yeah forgot about the people who dress up police one had the tech to pretend he was the police so the other racer would slow down

[PS3ProGamer13]

the reason he crashed is because he went a little to wide and just touched the dirt and at that speed when he turned it crashed

[sean050483]

L7OONY was the number plate of the Ferrari F355 that crashed in the gumball 3000

[sean050483]

@sean050483 Correction: the Ferarri's numberplate was L1OOONY

[marciliio]

just a bunch of idiots thinking they can drive the way they like...

[gtc150cv]

esta claro pisa la arena, y si las barras estan por suerte en su coche y pueden contarlo... yo tengo otras por lo mismo

[monaroboy124]

dat cosworth got pwned

[anassgame]

Nice Ferrari from Fiat Group in Italy.

[michaldeville]

british drivers hahaha suck . Stupid assholes

[Snakypaintbrush]

@michaldeville let me guess every driver where your from is great

[slimzy1990]

@michaldeville you fucking idiot fascist bastard shut your inbred mouth

[michaldeville]

@slimzy1990 stop crying you bitish retard , maby go and fuck someone from your family - it can be your father

[turfturbo]

@slimzy1990 If your from England you are British. Or is England no longer part of the commonwealth? lol. Funny an Englishman calling someone else inbred. Thats the problem with so many generations on one island. Gets a little tough to tell the family from the non so might as well marry your cousin.

[yassinesoufy1988]

Morocco baby ! can't handle its road better than the locals !

[NismoPWNS]

dang that car was a classic, now its shit

[Volvo400TV]

Haha! Another dickhead bites the dust :)

[floydy22]

its not a ford cossie no more. i wouldnt even open that thing to get my sardines out

[myrule12]

Moroccan roads are too hard for you dumpass

can not drive at all

[skitcy123]

looks like he couldent handle a v8

[knutfheifer]

@skitcy123 it was a v20 veyron engine in it

[xxxIRossHi]

@knutfheifer what the hell are you on about lol?

[knutfheifer]

@xxxIRossHi You need a lesson on picking chicken peckers, stop it!!!! right, tell me now, quick quick!!!! too slow you loose.

[xxxIRossHi]

@knutfheifer You make little sense.

[knutfheifer]

@xxxIRossHi Yes, and you are expert of pizza makers

[willzy2k6]

630 bhp cossy + undertaking on mud at high speed = HUGE crash ,not rocket science lol

[SuperSam718]

eljaco88 hu are you? how do you know martin?

[takeoverpete]

yea their new one is awesome,so much better and faster.the gumballs friggin ace.all u haters out there av no passion for cars.wankers

[PUNKF001]

hahahaha watch the bald bloke run..what a fanny

[Sj1bby]

@PUNKF001 lol Thats Alex Roy, 7 time roadrally champion.

he drives a stock (fake)Polizei 144 M5.

[PUNKF001]

fairplay to him, still runs more girly than the women next to him lmao

looks like the cossie hit some sand or somet, you can see he steered into it but prob not much anyone could do, some skids you just cant stop

[Djmarcod]

@Sj1bby Was wondering if it was him or not. Recognised him from the Bullrun races.

[MercsDude]

Idiot, he says "the car steered too fast for me" .... dumbass you were the one driving. All these people should go to jail for endangering inocent lives.

[Sj1bby]

@MercsDude where does he say that??

i can only hear him say, the rear went suddenly light...

and these people obeyed the rules of the country they were in.. the king of Morocco, lifted all the speedlimits for the day thatgumball past the country.

[eljaco88]

FUCK OF GUMBALL HATERS, IF YOU HATE IT SO MUCH WHY THE FUCK DID YOU TYPE IN GUMBALL 3000's, ANUS'S

[adythelover]

...stupid richs...

[leafyridge73]

you say this is legal? yeah i doubt the police have no problems with a bunch of rich pricks ripping around on public roads endangering everyones lives. this is immature.

[Sj1bby]

@leafyridge73

Yes its legal, The king of Morocco lifted the speedlimits for that day!.

[Draives]

They have such accidents just because THEY CAN'T DRIVE. They are not professionals, just rich dumbass who can risk others' lifes just because they are rich, and they can buy themselves racing cars.

Please let the speed races for professionals on proffesional racing tracks. And I hope all that summ in prison soon.

[E60BMWM5]

Yes most of them may be rich bastards but some of them have real passion for this event... There is no race as exciting as road racing... Gumball is a legend...People who criticise them either JELOUS or AUTHORITY LOVERS who think they have freedom...

[Draives]

Yeah, sure... money freedom. Freedom to risk others' lifes

[eljaco88]

Martiin hadland can't drive???????? Now i've seen everything

[Amputate]

do you just post the same exact comment on like every gumball crash video? you're a really lame and ignorant individual.

[MILL3R2011]

@Draives Look up rayland cosworth, not a rich dump ass a highly skilled driver 

[sexybritgent]

a bunch of idiots with no respect acting up for the camera. idiots like this with more money than sense will get eu laws enacted on the autobahns in germany and ruin sensible respectful drivers in germany. lets hope the economic crash brings them down to reality.

[farodkhaledmossad]

OMG Alex running looked so... funny.

Those boots are quite equestrian to be used police like as team polizei usually plays.

[eljaco88]

Its legal everyone!!!!!!!!! No illegal, even if they do go well over 100mph, or even over 200mph, its a rally!!!!!!!!

I'm doing this thing when im older, maybe in an escort cosworth too, thats my dream to do the gumball rally in a fast car, nothing else matters, not even being a film star...

I bet most of you don't even know who martin hadland even is, if so you'd know hes a really nice guy and he is an awesome driver, one of UKs finest easily..

[geordieliam]

you lot obviously havn't got a clue who martin hadland is.

[eljaco88]

I know people think he crashed cos hes an idiot, my dad in law raced against him at silverstone in his escort cosworth, ours was fast, but he made everyone look like they was standing still

Do you like fast fords or just know who martin hadland is.

[driverfilms]

Its not a race, Its a rally. Its not Illegal, Its LEGAL! There are hundreds of car rally's out there, people enjoying there cars on some great driving roads. Only a few idiots spoil it for the rest of us!

[mangaloveFTW]

cmon guys, im anot a rich nutcase with a fancy car... but to be honest, if you had the money, dont deny it but youd do the same. youd get caught up in the atmosphere and go for it. i would.

[bobnudd]

you would go for it untill you hit a car with kids in the back i lost my parents to fools like this and all for what? you tell me !

[samblah]

then get off the net and go find them

[Kritsos23]

Looks like Gumball is full of rich guys that can't really drive.

[ValleyViper81]

The only thing better than gumball is having a death race. For every checkpoint whoever comes in last suffers brutal death. That would be way cooler.

[HeavyLikesSandwich]

If i ever had the money to take part in the Gumball rally.. I would not opt for a convertible. Too risky.

[DYNO323]

hey these races are awesomee!!

fuck all u haters!!

u jst hating cause u cant afford to race there lmao!

[kineticdeath]

Its not a race, its stupidity

I think 99.9% of the inteligent community will agree that people who have zero regard for everyone else should be hated upon.

I think peple are hating cause these fools cost more in damages than thier cars are even worth. I mean how much is a life worth to these people? Theres better things to do with money the attempt to bribe authorites after causing large/serious motor accidents. Driver training is a good start

[demonboy666ownz]

kin they do waste there money but.. they do it for the fun and seeing all the cars n stuff i mean i would love to do this thing when im older

[eljaco88]

Yea im on your side, i love gumball, best event evr

[swiftytrs]

Dito

[eljaco88]

I don't care what anyone says, the gumball 300 is one of the best events in history, and a great car to reprsent it is the escort cosworth, one of my favourite cars ever, i'm doing gumball when im older

[kineticdeath]

best event in history? seems like giving people guns and letting them shoot at people awarding points for injuries and bonuses for deaths is going to be your suggestion for awesomeness?

Its not an "event" its glamatised road rage and recklessness plain and simple

[eljaco88]

WHAT???? IT DOES NOT INVOLVE DEATH UNLESS YOU CRASH!!!! ITS A RACE!!!!!! And crasha are brilliant and spectacular, thats why millions watch it and thousands try to take part

[kineticdeath]

on a racetrack, where the cars, and drivers are capable of handling/surviving a crash - i agree completely.

On a public road where 99.99% of cars and road users are not racing equiped (the people featured in these vids and many others on youtube included) - this sort of behaviour is criminal and reckless. These people should be banned from entering a motor vehicle for life.

[Razerzone]

über lol at Alex Roy's pant, he run like a gay !

[boofles]

I hope a few of them die soon, they're all shit drivers in cars that are too powerful for them on public roads. Maybe they'll care if someone they know dies, rather than some stranger they couldn't give a fuck about.

[kc03300]

to bad he did not hit your family and they all died at the side of the road.

[DakMode]

owned

[3000ST1]

Yes I agree and with that not being a standard Cosworth (nearly 700hp) makes it worse. Not a good idea doing having two wheels on the dirt as a small amount of steering lock induces a large amount of yaw.

[AnonymousCowardX]

All those Gumball idiots need to be arrested !!

[MiniMuscle777]

fuck that its all upside down.

[bikeman7990]

i nearly cried when that happend am glad its fixxed

[FEZ3839]

he rebuilt it and it better and faster now!

[houghton538]

LoL 28 TO 31

[cxon]

Serves them right!

[japscrapno1]

wat a waste of a brilliant cosworth still least he pushed it to its limit

[skraprm]

His limit, not the car's.

[slimzy1990]

@skraprm you don't know that, I guess the car has probably been built for it though

[yido4life83]

@skraprm his limit is the sky he has built a new one its even faster, but i get your point

[SummerTheFuzzy]

I do love the gumball rally but i think some of the things these guys think they can get away with is just stupid. I mean, these guys going like 150mph, what happens if it runs into the back of an estate with 3 kids in the back???

[Albannachdona]

they all die, but wat a way to go. (this wont take long to get voted down)

[bivvyfox]

there should be another thumb marked "immature" lol

[Stapurda]

@Albannachdona pfff i watched this none of them died they all survived the driver had just minor back injuries and the other was just bused

[THCmuzicalmasta]

@Albannachdona

no one died in this crash , this is the reyland cossie , and martin is still with us, still building cossies , in fact he has a new one now , took him about 2 years to build after this accident ,

[PlymouthRacer729]

it says in the disclaimer for the rally that what ever happens to you is your own fault and responsibility. so if you get pulled over for speeding its your fault not the gumballs fault

[boofles]

He's talking about the other people they kill, no one gives a fuck about these selfish idiots.

[onthewinghard]

The outside rear got "Light" because you got a wheel in the dirt swerving between cars.

[jgizzy]

lol at the retards running at 0:28

[eljaco88]

lol jgizzy

[SpdyHS]

it's Alex Roy

[avensis92]

I'm glad those in the car where ok, shame about the RS Cossie. But it has been rebuildt and is known as the Repsol Escort, after my knowledge it is number 2 of the world's greatest Escort's :)

[supatubz74]

shame. great car, not so great driving

[eljaco88]

ouch that looks like it hurt alot! my spanish comment underneath!

[Cedef36]

Haha yeh it did. Online translators don't really work as you'd hope... but it got the message across I suppose :D

[eljaco88]

cedef. are you spanish for real? i can really speak spanish, but online translators are good, esspecially on homework!

or..

[3000ST1]

That was a badly executed manouvre, not enough room and put a wheel off the black top - game over. The guys in the Ferrari also binned it later on.

[V0RT3X]

shut the fuck up! like being controlled? :) 9

[doeoene]

menos mal k era un coxe de rally si no estarian muertos

[guidoditraverso]

thats idiot

[Cedef36]

rally ilegal? el rally es legal, pero mucho de lo que hacen si que es ilegal.... ilegal pero divertido :D

[eljaco88]

estoy de acuerdo, tan entretiene que usted olvida a su emigrante ilegal, tan divertido para mirar, fácilmente mi serie raceing favorita. ¡por ser, im inglés, sólo 13 y yo podemos hablar español fluido! los accidentes ar el mejor

[Elder376442]

thats cute, he brought his boyfriend along with him

[murillomrl]

SEU ANIMAL SUA MULA

vc acabo com o CARRO esse carro é o melhor

e vc acabo com ele

=^/

meu sonho é ter esse carro =D

[brewcrewracer]

Check the guys driving wellys at 0.30.. lmao..

[13radz]

thats alex roy of team polizei (he was dressed up as a cop)

[DAVEYBOND007]

Ah! Now he should have used a Lancia Delta Integrale instead of that piece of shit Ford!

[FIGHTFAN30]

Serves this ugly bald headed twat right.Thinks he's some badass driver.claims his car would beat anything but yet to prove it.And that ferrari he was trying to catch was not an enzo.What they dont show you in this video is how bad his passenger is injured...almost dead.

[mboon999]

OK all that are slating the car.... best not too.

There is a clip somewhere of this car and driver being interviewed, the spec and the stats of the car was let out.

Went sometihng like this

Hey guys, whats this a ford escort.... thats not a very powerful car for the gumball, then Mr Reyland went on to explain it would do 0-60 in around 2.5 s and a top speed of just under 200mph.... at the time that car was more powerful and quicker than a Enzo....

The car is the best part of 600bhp

[FIGHTFAN30]

When has he beat an enzo and where?has he beat the R.Tarry cosworth...NO.

[mboon999]

why dont you do a search on youtube for reylands escort cosworth.....

As for Rods car.... top end this wont touch his, but i am sure with the 4x4 it would of the mark until traction was delt with. both great cars if you ask me.

What is the 0 to 60 for a enzo? is it under three seconds? they dont have to race when the stats are there for all to see.....

[FIGHTFAN30]

the 0-62 is 3.2 and top speed is 212mph so the stats speak for themselves so how is this at under 200mph gonna catch it?

[mboon999]

i know the old car in this video was under 3 s 0 to 60 and had more mid range punch etc, i agree it lacks on the top end, but how many times do you get 212 out of a car?

[FIGHTFAN30]

how many times do you get 200 on british roads?it's not the car i hate it's his bullshit.he don't build the engine he has it built then claims he done it.

[mboon999]

I cant comment on his work, but who ever did the engine work did a good job.

I own a escossy and its a great machine with tuning potential, but will admit that its getting a bit out dated now.

As for mr reyland I dont know him so wont comment on his fine self

[chiemekaa]

from the video, i think its obvious that you can get little to no traction ESPECIALLY AT THAT SPEED with ur two wheels off the road...imo i think it was very poor judgement to pass almost entirely on the shoulder of a two lane road with traffic coming toward u

[gabbana1980]

IDIOTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!

[europeanspec]

There is a difference between car-guys and racers. One cares about the car, the other uses it as a tool to compete. There is no attachment. I do however think that the Gumball is a huge waste of money and resources to go screw-up someone else's country. I'll stick to road-racing,legit.

[n1bill]

To bad the mindless cunt didnt die,goes to show money and an expensive car doesnt make you a good driver.

[Blib27]

You silly person you :)

[Andrew64of88]

Lesson to be learned is, do not lift on the throttle when turning at high speed. I suppose it's obvious, really.

[gregwddriver]

Three wide at speed on a two lane road? Its called natural selection.

[rrbespoke]

At all gumball crashes I've seen here on youtube brits were driving...

random?

[liamcscooper]

idiot? the mans a fuckin legend! he tuned my car a few times an prob got more skill in his little toe than u got in your body, ure the idiot

[Dizzles]

HA!!!!!!! COSWOTHS SUCK!!!!!!!!!

[rua4d4]

The cossy is one of the very few good cars Ford ever made...

[Dizzles]

lol i was only kidding... jeez... i was in that gumball3000 run. i took my supra in it lol sadly i couldnt keep up wit dis dude named lonman... that guys insane.... but ur right bout cossys they good cars.. but they good on track from wat i understand

[LiaJK]

You are 19... you gotta be 21 to enter the rally.

Get some facts before lying ;)

[LiaJK]

You are 19... you gotta be 21 to enter the rally.

Get some facts before lying ;)

[Dizzles]

lol im actually 30 dis my younger brothers name

[Daaneek]

you suck idiot

[theastraboy]

You really are very angry arn't you? Judging from the comments people have posted about you in your profile its pointless starting an arguement with you, so I'll leave you to seethe in peace.

[theastraboy]

Martin hadland is not rich, he's a working man same as you and me. the wanker comment is just uncalled for thought, Martin always has time for everyone, never to busy for a chat.

[j10der]

rip RS Cosworth

[ardilladeltibet]

q mala es la envidia rata peluda

[driftability]

hahahahaha

[sluggygt]

Those that know of Mr.H will know his ability to tune a car and drive it to its limits.How many "race car" drivers get a wheel on the dirt and crash? Are they idiots and wreckless? No I believe that is classed as an accident.Granted his speed played a part in this crash.Whoever said the whaletail was an optional extra after 1995.... Ford stopped producing the Escort Cosworth in 1992, all models after this are either unregistered, or the Prodrive versions... all of which, had a whaletail!

[Henzern]

"Ford stopped producing the Escort Cosworth in 1992, all models after this are either unregistered, or the Prodrive versions"

hahaha, BULLSHIT! search for a 94 model Escort Cossie and im sure you will find one! maybe you will buy it too;)

[ShinyHagge]

Escort Cosworths were sold to 1996 but from 94 with a small turbo and Fords own "motor computer system" or what it's called.

[wiremu]

Subaru GT Legacy 4wd Turbo 2 Litre lowered, and will shutdown a V8 from standing start.

Driven in NZ where we get all road conditions and more-(ie stray animals, tourists) every single day.

A little more challenging than driving from London to Reading on the M Whatever.

More challenging than flooring it on the Autobahn as well.

Perhaps you should learn to spell before you write in public.

K mate!!

[wildcard252]

no shit shirlock

[bognapalm]

It's Sherlock, you dumb fuck. If you're going to insult someone, spell it correctly.

[stunty123]

hey wiremu im british and we made the escort cosworth so fuck u.The reason he crashed was partly due to the spoiler on the back being removed that whale tale is there for a reason.Its weird cause Ford made the whale tail an option after 1995.

[Capnwabbit]

We love fast cars going fast precisely because they might crash, we come on YT and watch from safety those who actually do it - and sneer how stupid they are for living the life we dream of. How sad.

[NotoriousThugs123]

it wasnt his driving, it was his own dumbass fault for taking the spoiler off thats why cossies have thos emassvie wailtails poilers so the backend doesnt suddenly go light and spin out

[rickweb1]

It is the WRC version and has the official WRC spoilor on it.

[wiremu]

Fantastic...what a loser, but you have to be a true asshole to risk citizens lives like this.

Perhaps the best thing is watching them try to shrug it off afterwards.

Seems like most of these tossers are Brits, the Gumball being the first chance these plonkers have of driving on different and changing road surfaces at speed.

[D1rec7or]

just cos you can't afford a half decent car! get fuked "wiremu"!

[krugerboy]

probably the greatest collection of obnoxious pricks in the world at any one time.

[sonakoya2001]

gumball = a place where crap drivers try to show off

[13radz]

it wasnt a blowout he was overtaking on the hard sholder and hit a patch of dirt and spins + this is only the tv footage you should see the shots from the cars behind

[chitemuartu]

i hope every single motherfucker die soon

[Psycho12345421]

Yeah Like rancho said, just idiots do stuff like gumball..... i think Even on a race track they cant beat the pacecar...

if i would be near a such Idiotic "Race??" i would have to K*LL every driver to serve the other Peoples with a IQ more then 10, on this planet.

[fordwrc2006]

Best car in gumball by the desert mile!!

[RanchoCoral]

Even if it had 1000HP

[RanchoCoral]

No, actually these are all Gumballs as the name states, obviously waaay overpowered complete with beer guts. Real Race Car drivers lothe sharing a track with these kooks. Wreck a 400 HP Cosworth on a straight away? That takes real mental retardation.

[scriv182]

some of these coments makes me laugh

some people enjoy life and do things that push things to the limit i bet most of the negative coments come from people who dont hav much of a life or expriences

live life like everydays ur last

oh and im pretty sure he knows how to drive his car to the limits just unlucky he ran onto the dirt/grass with the back wheel

[MagicAyrtonforever]

He got the rear tyre on the Grass .. whoops

[sonakoya2001]

another case...

of a high performance car...and a low performance driver...

[djoli101]

fuk u martin hdland is a fukin pro race driver he hand builds the rayland in birmingham

[razoramon989]

I didn't know Phil Collins races cars now

[RRVVWW73]

blimey! i crashed me bloomin' transport! the bonnet's crumpled!
