Crash film

I saw a feature on Speedvision yesterday talking about driver safety. They showed some crash footage - one was a CART car sliding into a gravel trap, then barrel-rolling. It was a Players car, but I don't know who the driver was. Any ideas?

Could have been Greg Moores accident that killed him....although that wouldn't really show driver safety. Norm "Ed Solheim" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:ZJVh6.5110$[email hidden]...

It was not Greg Moore, this was on a road course and I am pretty shure it is Carpentier car. This is the same crash that they used in the trailer of Driven. Murchman Norm Loewen <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:sZVh6.422570$[email hidden]...

Carpentier, T1 @ Road America, '98 or '99. He was unhurt. Warlock! EldredP wrote:

That's right in the show they did show both accidents. Man that was one heck of a lucky crash. His head just missed the fence as he was flipping over it.

I remember that one, but I think what is being referred to is Patrick again, but at turn two (after the first turn hairpin), at Laguna Seca last year. He hit the gravel, the top of the tyres and right over the catchfence! Maybe a few here missed it. It sure is worth a look!

Man, Patrick *has* had some amazing accidents, hasn't he? The one I was referring to was NOT the Laguna wreck, so it must have been Elkhart.
