Another one bites the dust

D@mn, hope the driver is okay. Did this happen on a track or on the street?
Ouch that's terrible! I see the roll cage does not look deformed.
Minor damage... I have seen worse
Looks awful. Strange that the blow to the rear appears to have come from underneath and the front from above. No broken glass?
Off to Miklos!
If thats a real Alpina, it deserves better than Miklos can ever provide. It stays in Germany...
Thanks for sharing Shannon, looks like a fun set of turns!
It's what happens when "driven like they were meant to be driven". I think if a car, no matter how significant, has been crashed before, go out and crash it again, have fun. Original cars, not so much. Glad this wasn't a real and original car.
Another reason for me to get my third brake light installed...
Ten brake lights don't help the new phenomenon, drivers texting.
But it can't hurt. I am having one installed in my car. I also am putting one in my E23. Even if it really doesn't help (as such) - the third brake light has become so universal now that I think other drivers expect to see a light in that area of the car that if it is not there, the other brake lights (kind of) loose a bit of their effect. My thinking anyway....
that's a real double OUCH. doesn't matter if its a real CSL, an early carbed CSL, an early Alpina car ... or just a regular CS ... it still hurts to see one crashed while driving in anger (the way they were meant to be driven). totally agree about rebuilding it and going racing again. it can be fixed, it can be rebuilt, and live to race again.
thanks for sharing the video @shanon .... enjoyed watching the entire 18 minutes. some cool cars in the event - loved the old Lancias, plenty of e30 m3
Official event website has fun videos, etc. Lovely country, very technical roads and lots of eye candy.
