Jet Car Crash at Heathcote

The 70 year old driver was going for his first test run of the day, running the engine power at about 60 - 70%. About 150mtrs into the run he loses it by overstreering to the right. He hits the wall hard (you can hear the impact if you turn the volume up), alomst tumbling over. Luckily he stayed on the track and straightened up. At the end of the clip you can see one of his mates come in his jet van. The driver was fine with only a couple of scratches. Sorry about it being so shakey, the afterburners were hell loud when ignited.

shit camera man. why move the camera at the most important moment?? idiot!!

[bluesy007]

Do u think i stopped and thought to myself..."I think i'll move the camera away now"!?! I didnt exactly expect the thing to spin out like it did. Plus its a tad hard to follow which way its goin when one second its pointing this way and next its pointing that way. Dont open ur mouth cos u weren't there and u have no idea what it was like. P.s. great username=)

I like the part where the parachute opens up after the wreckage stops!
