1998 (or was it 97?) It was hanging from the jib of the tow truck on a sling through the roll bar, the car was hanging sideways behind the truck.
The truck cut through the tyre wall where the straight used to go into the esses and he clipped the tyres with the car and it fell down!

I think the idea of dedicated (even PAID!) teams doing all the recoveries has merit. From what I've read here & seen myself, the recovery teams vary from excellent to bloody awful, depending on the event.
Time to get the best guys all together to do the whole circus. I'm sure AVESCO could find the dollars somewhere, hell, why not get a sponsor for the recovery teams like they do at Indy.
