Scruff of neck driving 8)

 There is that crazy video of that Euro driver screaming at the female co driver who can't keep up with his absolutely mental speed.
 Anyone know the one I'm talking about? It will be in the other best youtube vids post

 That is so torcherous the screaming of that engine and then the way its just gasping for air at top you hear it just reving its guts with no power left :P
 It bloody high tho and has any body ever flown off and dropped big time or can't that really happen?

To many good ones to choose  8)

This (if I have the right one (Youtube not co-operating at present) is a cool one -

and
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BBdv7QL7YY
For more RWD tarmac action, just about any of the Irish Rally footage! Lots of 280+ hp Escorts and an occasional Chevette  8) 8) 8)

BB, as of 2001 there were 3 deaths - two died away from the track from injuries and the last (?) was from a branch coming in the driver's window and causing blunt force injuries when it crashed into trees.
Quite a good read here about a sidecar racer... http://www.sidecarcross.com/other/pikespeak/2001/
