that srf driver is super lucky.....we had a similar incident here at LRP....except it was a 944 going up over a SRF facing the wrong way. the 944 rolled over, and the spec racer driver had tire marks on his helmet......

Black SM/SM2/"Slap Bracelet Throwback" #12 in the Northeast....if the car was made in the early 90's it should look like it.

Don't forget about Payson launching over the Elise several years ago coming onto No Name and breaking his neck:

OMGOSH!!! That second video looks horrible! Guess the Miata was tucked in behind and didn't see the lotus till it was to late? Wonder why there wasn't a yellow?
There is...watch the video again. But it may have come out right as the contact Miata was going by! And or he was keyed in intently on the car in front!

WOW, both the Homestead and LRP videos make you sit up and pay attention. We love to conveniently forget it, but never forget this is a sport that can kill you.
It could have easily gone the wrong way for that SRF driver at Homestead. So happy no one was hurt, but it could have been deadly.
Selin, hope your car is OK, guess its in better shape than the SRF.

I agree with Mr. Fumes. I really don't think SMs and SRFs should be grouped together.
Selin, hope your car is OK, guess its in better shape than the SRF.
Actually the SRF was in better shape! He was running it yesterday just with a different nose piece! As for us we had to park it because of a big hit it took to the radiator.

I know this is an oldie, but these Miata's can seriously get airborne. Also should help to dispell any push to run topless. Not sure if his arms were tethered to start with or not, but if he didn't destroy his arm, he came really close to it

Ok we need to stop posting these horrific accidents right before I go to Road America for the first time.
That last one was nasty, watch before the accident, his helmet was already above the cage, I'm sure he is at least 2 inches shorter if he ever walked again.
There is...watch the video again. But it may have come out right as the contact Miata was going by! And or he was keyed in intently on the car in front!
Yep, looks like a missed yellow to me.
Who broke the neck? Lotus or miata?
Danny
any idea if that driver was hurt? He looked unconscious when it landed. Also looked like no arm tethers. I like my hard top more and more every time I see something like this
