I nearly got taken out big time by a mk2 escort rally car :shock: And the driver was someone i know too :lol:
I was out watching a stage rally on a local airfield and me and a group of mates were watching at the end of a long straight on a grass bank, anyway theres a slight kink at the end which they take pretty quick and he got out of shape and clipped a couple tyres and then he's heading straight at the bank where we're standing :shock: :shock: :shock: Instinctivly we all dived off this bank into the road behind which i hit pretty hard :? and we werent sure then if the car was gonna come over the bank and land on us :?
It didnt luckily, but if we hadnt all dived out the way the car would have skittled the lot of us. Once we'd all picked ourselves up we ran over to the car to see if he was ok and that must be one of the worst feelings ever when you see someone you know stuck in a wrecked car making horrible groaning noises Luckily he had just winded himself.
Heres the end result
