Thats me and my mate standing in the paddock. Was a doosy of a crash.
We where 1st down to him. ( both where crash rescue marshals at manfield)

He was very shaken up, broken collorbone and ribs if i remember right, massive seat belt marks across his chest and was struggling to breath.

Was funny when the targa volenteers finally got down there, lots of panic among them saying the cars about to blow ( radator was pushed back through the fan )
Trying to push us back and drag the cop out of the car, took a while but finally got them under control and on the radio.

Funny you put an orange vest on somepeople and they think they know it all.

I had it on video on my phone but it corrupted when copying it to tv3 computer.

I remember seeing a video of that crash, from memory it was some pretty classic amateur understeer. Plenty of others have been off that corner too though.

The story I heard at the time was that the cop wasn't supposed to be on the stage at all, but he forced his way into doing a 'safety check' drive through the stage by threatening to shut it down and generally being a dick about it. Never found out from anyone first hand whether that was true or not, but if it is then the crash was poetic justice.

Sounds about right, apparently he got charged for the crash as the road haddnt be officially closes yet ( thats who we throught he 1st was )

Its a mint spot seen prob 20 crashers there in 3 years of heading out. Many many more close calls too

Spotted this on my way home the other day.

Thought I better have a look.

Good turn out,the result was?

It's OK. They quickly worked out their mistake and ditched it.

Can not have been insured as it would have been towed straight away

That Rav was taken by two nephews who went for a swim after borrowing the vehicle and on the way back they crashed it and told the cops it was stolen.
Keys weren't in the ignition and it wasn't hot wired. It sounds like the nephews are scared of their Uncle as the cop said it was finger printed and only the nephews and towees prints were in there. The Uncle that owns it hasn't reported it stolen.
