lots of aircooled vw's and other cars on an european race track, a nasty
curve that causes tons of trouble...

no helmets, seatbelts or any other safety gear.... roll overs and
drivers getting thrown out of their own cars... yet they asll walk away? LOL

Good stuff... Sad to see the notchback roll over.... but if you notice the
beetles faired pretty well after rolling over... one guy thrown out and
just walked away! and what were the fools in the vert thinking... lucky...

Some of the worst driving I've ever seen. You would almost think they were
trying to overturn. Since I own a Notchback, I winced when I saw one overturn
on two different occasions. It's good to know that the roof didn't crush. If I
ever do a body-off restoration I would install a roll cage.

I got more enjoyment out of watching the PS3 vs. Wii video.
