Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them, disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them. The only thing you can’t do is ignore them

Agreed. Lowndesy is da man, still cant work out why he teamed with Skaife...... Stuck between wanting Craig to kick ass and wanting Skaife to crash out.

Out of all those I think watching the Don McTavish one made me feel quite ill.
Cant imagine how the poor bastard felt when he hit him.

This was a special crash if once can say that, was not a fatal, Lowndes wasnt even really hurt, but demonstrates how a simple roll over can escalate, The G -Forces must be extreme.
