We were having a really windy night, and as the story goes he was letting off because of the wind and right as he did his nitrous kicked in and sent him right into the wall.
He managed to give us a thumbs up afterwards, so I guess they make em have cages for a reason!

That was nuts but it was obvious that car was caged as it tumbled on its roof. Good thing it was too or that guy may very well have died.

Glad the driver was ok. Sad to see someone lose their toy, but it's better than their life.

Yeah, he was so far down that he actually almost managed to roll past the boards and still get a time
