Mac KHoly crap.. Hope they're okay.
One walked away and the other dislocated his shoulder.

I disagree. NASCAR requires a very different driving style to V8 Supercars. NASCAR - at least on road courses - is all about maintaining momentum through the corners, so the drivers take some very unconventional driving lines, like when they openly and intentionally run wide and use the tarmac run-off as an extension of the circuit. V8 Supercars aren't allowed to do that. They follow a much more traditional, conventional racing line.
hornet_burnoutFrom this angle you can clearly see he "just lost his rear". It happens...

Yeah, V8 Supercars is not a full-contact sport. They'll occasionally lean on one another, but some of those moves - like Keselowski nudging Ambrose - aren't permitted.I said it LOOKED like a V8 Supercar race with all the bumpin' and banging and sliding and spinnin' going on.

V8 Supercar race is all about contact, how else would you pass someone?
No, it's not about contact. If anybody nudged another driver the way Keselowski did Ambrose, they'd be before the race stewards for sure.V8 Supercar race is all about contact, how else would you pass someone?
Wouldn't call it OMG nor WTF, but par for the course. That curb had the corner, but Pastor wanted it more.

Dont forget how Ambrose took the lead in the first place, by smashing Keselowski's rear bumper coming out of the outer loop
Haha! That's brilliant!He's clearly been playing too much Dirt

Hinchtown got the voice down but he probably said too much for Kimi's liking.
Pikes Peak:
Jeremy Foley walked away, co-driver had a dislocated shoulder 👍
(can't believe all the "WOWing" in the background)
This happened during the Pikes peak hill climb. It was all over the news.
EDIT: And here's the onboard views. You can probably hear the drivers screaming as they fall, unless they are the spectators.
They just had an interview on CNN a couple hours ago. Both of them were certain they would die. One of them was knocked unconscious for a few seconds because of the final impact. Both very lucky and happy to be here. One of the guys oddly seems to have bad luck and has had two prior terrifying accidents. One involving another Mitsubishi and an 18 wheeler?
