Love how the guy standing there just keeps checking his phone... How about pull the guys out of the water before they die!

 

From the interwebs - Both got out a-ok.

My thoughts - I think he might have overcooked that one a bit.

 

Seems like he could not find the brake pedal till it was too late. Or a mechanical failure (severe brake pad knockback).

 

ok, who's the u-boat commander?

 

check the rear wheel at 27 sec.....did that break apart prior to the hit or??? spokes are gone with only a few left on the hub

 

Looks like jersey walls are set on top of the grass and the cars rear wheel probably hit the curb first and then climed the barrier. Would think the smarter way would be to set the jersey wall on the street so you just hit it and not the two step curb then wall.

 

Looks like the throttle stuck to me. Way too much tire smoke.

 

The reason was that his throttle was stuck, at the moment they are already rebuilding the car
The driver had a blue eye and the navigator a wet suit and catched a cold.

 

I saw the post on 993 forum. check out the other footage on youtube on this Rally. Ya gotta have BIG ***** !

 

our hobby:

 

 

Who's "our" Kemosabe? Lawyer's must be a whole different animal on the other side of the pond.

Perhaps it's better to describe this as our crazy uncle's hobby. Wow. Reminds me of the crash footage from the 1920-1930's.

As for the first video, dry it out, buff it out, put new left side tires on it and get back out there .

Wow, that there is the first air cooled AND water cooled 911. Glad to hear the occupants made it out okay.

 

Holy Crap is right! Those guys are lucky not to have drowned.
One thing I don't get in rallying; what's in it for the copilot?
