QUOTE (Vacca Rabite @ Jan 31 2006, 05:22 AM)
thought it was interesting about half way thru. The guy who let go of the wheel and grabbed his seat with his hand. I've heard of guys breaking wrists trying to hold on after you've reached the point where "You're just a passenger".

The first time I hit an immovablke object in my race car (pit entrance at Nelsons Ledges), I forgot to take my hands off the wheel. Yup, felt like I broke my wrists. The second time it happened at Mid-Ohio, I grabbed my belts.

Like the other post said, it's not if you hit something (or roll), it's when, specially if you are pushing ten thenths in an open wheel car. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif)

Great video.
