god knows what braking system they use on those, but on a roadgoing truck if you lose air the truck just comes to a halt in a big cloud of tyre and brake smoke.________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

Blimey, that is scary s**t. How fast did he hit/go through that armco?! Would've definitely been a pull harnesses extra tight, slam it on full lock and start praying for me I think, although it's easy saying that now, probably considerably less easy at whatever speed he was doing! ________________________________________ Oulton Park in a BTCC 306 vid 1Oulton Park in a BTCC 306 vid 2 Lap of the 'ring |

The video says he was doing 190kph when he went through the armco. Hell of a crash, I am pleased but very surprised the driver managed to survive to be honest.  ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone  |
