Get home this arvo and turned the TV on to hear that Chaz Mostert had a big crash on The Mountain. Not good to hear. Hope he is ok and makes a speedy recovery.

grubstake said:In both of these crashes it is evident how poorly the V8 Supercar design protects the drivers in a major crash. Both drivers were left exposed as their cars disintegrated around them.
The doors flying open/off illustrates that safety is not taken seriously enough in this category. NASCAR pileups typically happen at higher speeds than this and their vehicles end up severely crumpled, but not shredded like V8 Supercars.
Rush said:Also the gearshift lever that broke the leg during the Ford crash sits very close to the drivers left leg since the seat position in the supercar is near the centre of the cabin.
