I remember watching this accident on tv and it made me grit my teeth and saying out loud to myself " oh no, not another fatal accident in that spot" My mind instantly flashed back to the Porter crash in '06.. I could not believe that Weel got through that accident, it looked almost as bad as Porter's...

This is Mark Porter's fatal Bathurst crash from 2006. Porter spun his Holden Commodore and was left stranded in the middle of the track in an area blind to oncoming traffic. David Clark sent his Ford ****** sideways in an attempt to escape the collision but crashed directly into Porter's driver's side door at around 180kph.

Clark suffered a punctured right lung, fractures to his pelvis, right arm and leg.

Porter was taken to Hospital and later that day airlifted to Royal Prince Alfred Hospital in Sydney with serious head and chest injuries but died in late afternoon of Sunday 8th October 2006.

Richard Petty crashes hard at Darlington

This is from yet another Mondo Doc from the late 1970s

This crash was as horrifying as it gets

Petty's arm was hanging out the window for most of the crash, its amazing that his arm wasnt ripped or sheared off
