A classic rallying moment...
Discussion
Much mirth was induced by this one - Mike Turfus rolling the Zero Car out of the Otaqo Rally on sunday, halfway through the last proper stage of the rally.
Was impressed that the flashing light stayed on the roof though!
car was still movable afterwards but not driveable due to having taken most of the impact across the top of the motor.

Yup, too wide and too fast, but its a tricky one - you can't see it from the photo but theres a long left which opens out to almost straight, before they swing tight left in the shot (its also a very steep intersection).
I think he was having just a wee bit too much fun as it opened up dropped a back wheel into the ditch behind him, and from then on was basically a passenger.
Turfus is a very experienced rally driver, but does tend to spend a bit of time upside-down.
