Martin Doxey, Holden Astra, GTP at PI a year or two ago.
A Nother, WRX, GTP at QR.

at the moment we are after the v8's only, but i will definatly keep those in mind.

[Boxy]

Glenn Seton had a major off at PI in testing a couple of years back. Pretty sure he rolled it. Not sure which year though.
Unfortunate to see Don Watsons name in there. Was working for him at the time and brings back many memories of a great man.

[Chronicle]

So, are you after the V8's predecessors as well?

[spook]

Ask Glenn Seton how easy it is to roll a Falcon in the Turn 1 Gravel Trap at QR - 1999, V8 Sprint Round, Practice, if my memory is correct.

[spook]

Didn't Ellery roll the Super Cheap Falcon at Oran Park Turn 1 as well ?.

WRONG

Marty inverted an Astra at Adelaide in a big way. The "other" Astra was inverted by someone else at Turn 2 at PI but not Marty.

He cops enough from those of us who know him (the tape gets a work out by those he lives with every time a group of us pay a visit) without being blamed for that one as well.

[Harves]

Greg Murphy @ PI not sure of the year.

Murph wrote of a car from going nose first into an earth bank.

'97, final turn. Perhaps race 2?? Not quite sure.

Was right in front of us. Have a few little souvenirs of that one

[fordlover]

greg murphy was a DNS for race 3 in 1997 @ PI so it was either after race 2 (he was classed as a finisher on conrod VESRIX) or on the warmup for race 3.

[StuiE]

There was the Alfa 155 of....dammit I forgot the name, at PI 1997 (or might have been '96?) in the SuperTourers.

[StuiE]

David Aunger (sp?) was the name

[Harves]

Murph's car rolled though...it was a big hit but a soft roll.

That's because his accident caused a red flag on lap 9 (the lap he had the off) and the results were taken back to the last completed lap and, as is usual in car racing when a red flag is thrown, the car causing the red flag is actually shown as a finisher (unlike bikes where the rider who causes the red flag simply 'disappears')

HALF RIGHT.........i Think

wasnt it Ken Youlden who flipped some form of holdeen from gtp at about turn 2 a few years back. i remember seeing it sitting on the roof, good view of the exhaust, recovery just put the tow rope through the window and .........up up and away

[RRR]

Paul Weel tipped his Falcon over in 2002 at Oran Park. I think it was in practice before the race, or maybe race 1. Anyway, they got the car going for the second race.

No he has only rolled once. Barbagallo last year in the turn 1 sandtrap.

[TheMan]

Also Mark Larkham rolled in Barbagallo a couple of years back, His wheel came of on his way to the grid for the first race I think, and spun into the dirt and rolled it. And didnt Jason Richards roll at Oran Park last year in practice or was it Wills. I know it was a Dynamik car.

[Matthew Ronke]

Didn't trimbole turn over a car at phillip island a number of years back ?

[Matt H]

he backed it into the pit entry ? flag point, well just before, was a big mess wouldnt say he flipped it though.

[Crash Test]

Spook- IIRC, I think 2/3rds of Seton's problem was the freshly laid grass rolls on the outside of t1. I remember a couple of cars becoming beached before the gravel trap that weekend!

Wasn't it Paul Weel that went tipsy over at T1 Oran Park, and I think it was Jason Richards went A oiver T exiting the bridge there last year in practice.
