Big crash at the start in this race with classic cars

The Lotus Elan got crash damage and burned a bit but was back on track a few months later. Drivers were slightly injured.

No CGI there. :) It was a bad crash but no one was seriously injured. The Elan on fire raced again later same summer.

@mrjogray I have a 67 Impala 4dr hardtop and I'm no snob. I can totally enjoy a race of any classics too! Wouldn't it be a boring world if they only ran what corettefan96 wanted!

Someone stalled. No room. Maybe too many cars on the start line?
