In the second Nippon Challenge race at Pembrey on Saturday June 28th, Dixon Cheng in his Dixcel Integra had a minor coming together with Chris Huntley in his Mk2 MR2. There was barely any contact at all, but it resulted in a freak roll-over of Chris' MR2.
Thankfully, both Chris and Dixon were uninjured, but it ended the weekend for the MR2.

MR2 guy missed his braking point, wound up late on his turn-in, and left the door opened. Wide opened. Motor racing was historically a gentleman's sport. Not anymore. Would have otherwise been a clean pass by the guy following, in the white Acura. The MR2 guy, wholly in the wrong, for not having yielded the spot, paid the price for being stupid. That is a lot of debris our hero in the STi just went through. Hope he didn't cut down a tyre.
I'm fairly sure the only way that happened was the mr2's wheel/wheels on the driver's side (left side of car) made contact and raised it just enough to pop it up and momentum carried it on over. From what I see - the rear wheel of the mr2 hit the front (turned) wheel of the teg. That's a perfect spot in terms of weight distribution. (right where the middle of the mr2's weight bias is)
That or there's some crazy unlucky debris in the road.

It was still a freaky flip though!
this is much more easily seen in the other video
either way it was a freak accident how it just flipped. what a shame
gtschris: dixon was not fully along side, watch dixons incar footage. racing incident no 100% blame either way.
TCracing: I disagree, dixon is alongside and has the apex.
EdLeake: You have to say from behind that does like the Dixon (Integra) is at fault - regardless it's just good news no one was hurt. :)
