Fuuuuuuck, no window nets, that could've been nasty.

It almost looks like his forearm/elbow hit the pavement, but I can't tell because it's so fast. Way too close either way.

Also, I guess that answers what it's like to be in a tumble dryer.

I love the part where he flips and locks his visor before taking off on his, uh, "spare."

Although the editing is amusing, I can't find it in my heart to find joy in a car with that much history getting all busted up. At least it was a drat dirty mopar. Still, I'd say this is the wrong thread.

The car in the video is a replica. Still a shame to see a car that nice get banged up, but it's not one of the original two HUG cars.

Really really close:

It's really freaky to see how much movement against the harness there is. I'm guessing it wasn't cinched down that much.

Marquez is such a nut. Not much on personality but he's a joy to watch on the track, his cornering looks like a continuous lowside. And even when he takes it too far and does lowside, he just digs his shoulder into the pavement and shoves the bike up.

(it was a test session, no film of it)


The reason he was in such a hurry in the first clip is it was qualifying and he wanted to get back and take his spare bike out.

He has personality, he's just a oval office. Lorenzo has zero personality and is also apparently a giant douchenozzle off track.

The original car was given back to Hurst in the sixties, used as a show car for awhile, and disappeared until the nineties. Riggle was working on the (replica) car that just rolled when the original (unrestored) came up for sale. He bought it, and sat on it for awhile while he toured with the replica. He sold the original a few years ago, and it got restored, but Bob Riggle is no longer the owner. The second "original" HUG car is also still extant, but also not owned by Bob Riggle.

Wrong thread and I'm glad no-one was badly hurt.

That was a parody edit of the original, which made i look like they rolled three times or so. Here's the clip with the bullshit edited out.

Ah, OK. Riggle's comment about "this" car for 50 years was what made me not even think of the provenance of that particular car. At least it wasn't original, but it sounds like it still has some history.

Welcome to Spokane, WA. Dude daily-drives that beast, too - first time I've ever seen it with the top up, though.

Not sure I've seen it come winter, maybe he drydocks it then.
