And this is exactly why you do not drive/track like this without a roll cage. Aside from being jarred a bit the driver was ok. No roll cage, different ending to this story. Glad no one was hurt.

I would assume (hee-haw, hee-haw) that they are Group N mirrors: http://evo-rally-parts.co.uk/product...r-assembly-lh/

My thoughts exactly.

Almost looks like it's in slow motion.

This evo appears at the end of this video.
The roof is still in good shape. The driver should be fine.

No skid-plate(s) and the lower lateral braces for the front suspension are gone. Weird.

The Evo 8/9 rear diff, on the other hand is typical.

many guys on tarmac take off the skidpalets and under armor. I never do that. in my. mind that extra weight is still worth it and that is not the reason why I am slower then others
