Slight mishap with his GT3 the other day. Looks like he will be ok.

Rear nearside tyre doesn't look too clever.

Biker looks OK, no sign of the bike?
 
:sad: :sad: :sad:
That looks dreadful. Any further details on this anywhere. I'm sure this will end up in Bradford in a few weeks with an entertaining description. One lady owner....never tracked.
 
No definitive details on what happened. Not sure the biker was envolved and maybe he was just passing the accident. Anyway I am sure it will all come out in the wash.
 
Wow.... looks like he has been a 'Lucky' chappie ....

Testament to the crash zone structure of the GT3 .... looks like its intact .... bet he got a fright there ...
 
Gives me the willies looking at it.
No a nice experience for those involved at all.
Some speed was involved there.
Do we know the driver and or passenger is Ok?
I hope so
 
Considering the 'ski ramp' he launched himself off into the field and the distance he's gone he's a lucky guy, if it is a guy! Testament to roll cage, harness's and airbags, one GT3 RS less in the U.K.
 
Reckon he misunderstood what the rear wing is for... "Don't panic, this car's got a wing!"

Occupant is ok - Just

Local chap, he knows the roads very well - this is a unrestricted road, appears something went wrong before the grass bank.

Mark on road before ramp suggests that is the case. Hope occupant(s) are ok. Not something I would wish to experience.
 
Glad it sounds like only one car involved and he got out. Lots of large forces involved in that one.

Agree looks as though the car was out of control prior to leaving the road. The road look pretty stright prior to the exit point but with a rise :dont know:

At the speed the loss of control occurred it was probably better the car launched into an empty / flat / maintained field to dissipate the energy more slowly that simply hitting a solid / immovable object such as a tree, very very lucky by the looks of it
 
Wonder if he had a Dash Cam?

Out of interest where did this accident happen, there was mention of unrestricted roads?
