Shamelessly stolen from the S2Forum

I've been wondering what is next for the RallyRep -

This might just have helped...

So a bullet proof roll cage is next.

Can I swear???

Good Lord!

ouch, double ouch

Martc · 07-04-09, 10:17 PM

You'd be a tad dizzy after that one.....

Good quality roll cage that'll be then!!

Best bit of money they spent by the looks of it. What the hell must go thru' the drivers mind when you're rolling helplessly down the sound of a cliff???

Cliff Richard's song... "I'm wired for sound"... of grating and crunching metal

WRC cages are rated to 15tonnes of impact force in any given direction if memory serves correct....
You wouldnt believe the effort to get a cage designed and agreed by the FIA that is safe...

Latvala = next colin mcrae, he'll keep breaking them till he wins.

Opps, a few yaers ago a saftey hoop was all you needed, thankfully cages have moved on somewhat

At least It been put to one off the best trance tunes of last year
