Massive Honda Civic Crash @ Nurburgring
Lots of accidents this weekend but this was perhaps the worst. Plainly, TF days scare the crap out of me and I'd never take my own car; the misfortunes of others cement that feeling.
VTEC kicked in...poor guy none the less. Last edited by Cozy; 06-02-2013 at 04:45 PM.. |

Apparently the car was fitted with an FIA full roll cage so the guy was ok.

Wow, that was a pretty nasty crash. Glad he was ok.
The first time I went to the Nürburgring I took my own car. When I arrived the track was closed for a bit due to a crash. I remember seeing paramedics and a flatbed leaving the track. Kind of intimidating when it's your first time there. Probably had something to do, in part anyway, with my terribly slow lap times, lol. |

I saw a few accidents the day I was there (Z06, GT-R (R33 and R35), E36 M3), but nothing that bad.
There are a ton of really fast sections on the track and there is NO runoff at all! If you lose it, you hit the guardrail. Luckily, I was there on a slow day and did 9 laps without incident in a Renault Sport Clio Cup rented at RSR.
