Axel Foley should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Those crash videos you can get, ie - Havoc, Car Wars, are all fine because they assure you that no one was seriously injured in any of the crashes. Buying a video to see the crashes on it is no problem to me.

I will admit that i am interested when there is a big accident in F1, Touring Cars or whatever. At first i am like - wow that was a big one. I always expect the driver to get out, and usually they do - ie Burti's somersault in F1 in Germany this year. If i realise that a driver hasnt emerged from the wreckage then I am not happy and I am worried. Luckily i havent experienced an actual death live on TV since 1994.

So i am easily able to comment on what I think were the 'best' crashes in the BTCC:

The best one i saw live was Gavin Pyper's barrel-roll down cascades in 2000. One's i have seen on TV include Tarquini in 94 at Knockhill, Burt in 96 at Oulton and Tarquini/Plato in 2000 at Croft.
