    BMW E30 Hillclimb Crash

    I was at my local hillclimb last weekend and caught a nasty crash on camera. The driver was fine.

    He had been trying to drift the track all day and was about to get kicked out by officials.

    Here are some photos of the damage. Probably a write off.

            I'm no expert, but I would guess shipping from Australia is $texas.

            Hopefully Takumi learned a lesson here, too bad the car paid the price.

                While appearances may be deceiving, the engine he's running (or rather ran) is/was a pretty potent M20 3.1L stroker setup.

                Shame to see it happen, regardless of how.

                      Just transfer everything onto a new chassis + cage, no big deal.
                      or make it a truck, looks like frame is fine, upper 1/4 panel and roof took the impact.
