HOLY CRAP!! It looked like he hit an invisible ramp or something! And talk about luck, JUST missing the other driver as he cartwheeled across the track. He's VERY lucky to have only broken his ankle. WOW!

ya itis so easy to fly these car compare to F1 which has more down force.
the underside is just 1 flat floor plate so if it gose of the grond a little they flip and start to fly in the air.

Wow!!!

Slightly different and i apologise if this has already been mentioned but it's def worth a look.

Sabine Schmidts hot lap in the "Ring taxi". She takes a German couple out in an M5 around the Nurburgring, and the guy video's it from the back seat, from recollection it's a sub 10 minute lap.
