Home video of crashes at the Ring in 1970s. Lots of VWs, BMWs, few Porsches, Fiats, Lotus and Alfas.

I like the guy in the beetle at about 1:53 who falls out as the car is getting ready to roll on top of him. Hmmmm, maybe should have worn a belt!
Cool video! Jim |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) That's some crazy footage. Were these every day citizens being allowed access to the track? The cabrio at 3:20 is the funniest. Looks like he'd done it a few times before.

MosDef one of my favorites. I have a different favorite car each time I watch it...This time it was the sedan, a Benz maybe, at 3:30. They guy just dumps it down the side. I think he just gave up when he saw the turn.
How do you save the videos to your hard drive? |
