MUmscheid 51 Posted May 23, 2014 Report Posted May 23, 2014 Watch this...can't remember if they said panhard bar mount broke or trailing arm mount broke but it turned him head on into the wall as he entered turn three at Gresham motorsports park. He was fine but obviously sore.... Front in-car view Rear in-car view Quote
HiTech Posted May 23, 2014 Report Posted May 23, 2014 (edited) wow ...not a chance to save it . Edited May 23, 2014 by HiTech Quote
liljoe0804 Posted May 23, 2014 Report Posted May 23, 2014 Not much the driver could do there. Was there damage prior to it breaking or just a bad piece? Quote
Colt15 Posted May 23, 2014 Report Posted May 23, 2014 I got hit in the left rear wheel probably 10 laps before that.if I had to guess it probably cracked it then and eventually broke. Quote
top_shelf_12 Posted May 23, 2014 Report Posted May 23, 2014 Hard hit glad you're ok. Thank god for safety devices. Quote

top_shelf_12 Posted May 24, 2014 Report Posted May 24, 2014 The whistling? A friend of mine noticed that when I watched the video at work. He thought it was a wheel bearing or something in suspension before I told him what was in the original post. Quote
termite#99 Posted May 24, 2014 Report Posted May 24, 2014 The whistle sound is the quick change. That's normal Quote
Colt15 Posted May 24, 2014 Report Posted May 24, 2014 Quick change like Cary said. It's in all my videos I have Quote
top_shelf_12 Posted May 24, 2014 Report Posted May 24, 2014 Makes sense, one of those things you never notice til someone points it out. Quote
Crazyhorse Posted May 24, 2014 Report Posted May 24, 2014 Sucked not knowing for 5 minutes (which seemed like an hour) waiting for updates to know if he was alright. Quote
debwill Posted May 27, 2014 Report Posted May 27, 2014 Yikes! What a hard hit. Glad you're okay, Colt. Quote
