Yo JJ, Thanks for the link; a great site. There are some really crazy ****s in the world let alone those rally drivers. Watching those small rally cars flippin' out as they do makes me think that I'd want to do that if I had a NASCAR type cage around me but nothing less.

Hey, I think I might recognize that car. Anyone else ever remember seeing the "On A Limb Racing" rally Milano? They used to have a website about their SCCA rally cars, a Milano 2.5 and a Mistubishi Eclipse. It looked just like the one in the video, bright yellow.

I wonder if it's the same car.

How do you think this happened ? how did he accomplish this stunt ? Downshifting at high speed ? Wrong brake balance ?

On A Limb's yellow Milano had black accents, as I recall. I can no longer find a picture of the car but it belonged to Fred Carpenter out of New Bedford, MA. He gave it up a few years ago; I guess he was having just too much fun. I believe I bought an item or two from him when he liquidated his parts inventory. You can view a little information on him at http://www.rallyracingnews.com/teams...carpenter.html
It looks to me that all the video takes place in Europe.

The out on a limb Milano was a 2.5, hence no big skirts etc.

This Milano looks like a 3.0 or a 1.8T America.

In any case, both cars are pretty much out. Yeap the out on a limb car crashed . The owner of the out on a limb car posted the mishap on alfagtv6.com
