MX5 vs concrete wall 200+km/hr

Postby nfs13b » Sun Mar 08, 2015 8:27 am

Hey All,

I thought I would share this video from Sydney Jamboree yesterday, car got out of shape after the finish line and decided to go for the wall.... Luckily its only the front left and rear left that's damaged..... If anyone has any replacement parts that would like to part with cheap I am in need of:

Front Bumper
left front guard
perhaps front left chassis rail/strut area from firewall forward..

cannot help out with parts. but when was the last time they cleaned that section of the track? a lot of crap on the surface.

if the chassis rail is bent. then you might try finding a near complete car you can cut up. ie mx5 with smashed arse or mx5 with no engine.
