I think I saw this car on another forum, I have to find the link. Supposedly the driver was in the fast lane (on route 90 near Chicago if I remember correctly) when someone cut him off. He swerved, slid sideways 90 degrees down the center embankment so he was facing the highway, the wheels caught in the dirt and the car rolled multiple times. The passengers were ok except for some cuts and bruises. The paramedics were suprised to see them alive when they showed up.

Actually, the owner of this car is a team mate of mine with TCL Racing.

He left a daytime party that we had organized out in the boon docks of IL and headed towards the city.

I haven't heard anything about him getting cut off, however, he was weaving in and out and speeding. He was relatively a new owner and may not have been as familiar with the touchy dynamics of the handling on the S2000. I'm guessing with much confidence that he unloaded the rear, lost traction, over compensated and got the car going perpendicular to the direction he was going. The sides of the forward facing tires caught and his started flipping.

The owner only had cuts from glass, and a gash on his head. Otherwise, he walked away pretty in pretty good condition.

BTW, it rolled 9 times.

Yeah? Why?

There should be lots of stock units available for next to nothing.

Luder did he like flip 9 times or spin? You guys notice that he unscrewed the shift knob? Sad to here about Aldwin's crash.
