Sparky961 Posted December 23, 2006 Report Share Posted December 23, 2006 Duct Tape is what it looks like, I would assume it is to stop you're fingers or arms getting jammes in between the spokes of the steering wheel in a crash as that could be pretty sore lol. cheers sparky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dangerous damo Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 Good luck Jamesy! Just a quick question... I know that you put stuff over the steering wheel to stop hands/arms going through, but what actually is it? Sorry if its a dumb question i use a wheel trim cable tied in then cling film it up or just cling film the steering wheel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If his car didnt fold like paper it wouldnt have looked so bad and trust me i was there.. Jamesy ( the 717 one that is) was always a dirty driver back in the early to mid '80's, that was until a certain 667 ( then Bill Batten) jacked in racing, and suddenly Jamesy discovered that he could actualy pass people with having to attemp to make them part of the Newton Abbot fence plating. As soon as Batten took up racing again, Jamsey returned to his old ' full bore' driving technique. As Smeatharpes so small, the ' follow in' looked worse than it actualy was, a track with bigger bends wouldve ment that it wouldve ended less spectacularly. Both drivers shouldve been repremanded for their behaviour leading up to this, wasnt it going on for months? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rikard Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 Here are some more good crashes, This one is just plain funny. Heres one of a car that got totaly wasted in a tunnel. This one is from the Film Final Destination 2 If you havn’t seen it before its quite horrific, but if you have a strong stomach watch it cause its good. It’s a film so no one got hurt. Click here!

erik Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 (edited) The one from Final Destination 2 is great I also found this one funny (I especially liked the woman's reaction...) Edited December 29, 2006 by erik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rikard Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 I especially liked the woman's reaction Nice idea using your feet to slow the car down, if 4 tires arn't having any effect try a pare of shoes Safer staying in the car belted up then skiing down next to it!

The London Allstar Posted December 30, 2006 Report Share Posted December 30, 2006 oh dear, the final destination 2 one is typical holiday, have the slightest little crash and your car explodes into 400 bits.. :S the otherones are cool tho. From that first video u posted rik of the cav being jacked, i started watching the ones called Classic Crashes pt's 1 - 3, i found that the barichello crash about 6 minutes into the first vid to be the worst Clicky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
