[quote name='HumanSnatcher']I was reading on another site, and one commentor had a really good point. If you see the guy behind the jersey wall that was set up where it crashed, there is a guy that looks to be holding a video camera of some sort. On top of that if you look closely for the like split second, the guy does not flinch even once when it hits the wall. So to me, its a publicity stunt...[/quote]
That's true. It doesn't stay on him long though and he had a camera so he might not have even been focusing much on how close it was. Or maybe he had an abnormal amount of confidence in that concrete barrier...
It was probably staged though, what idiot would set up a track with a sharp turn with a concrete barrier right next to it? You'd think they'd give it a little more room.
But anyway, 1.2 million is nothing to any of those people. Besides the fact that it's a rare car it's not really any loss to them. They just get the free advertising.
