Oops That’s why you upgrade your old race car with one of those new fangled roll bars and maybe add some kind of harness or seatbelt in case something like this happens. Or not.

Aw, video cut out before we can see him get dragged down the hill.

An acquaintance of mine, who has a hard-on for high-end superfast cars, has had it suggested to him over and over that he should take them out to bonneville salt flats and other similar places. He complained that you can't just go out there and DO that, you need to be a member of some orgs and have full inspections and install a bunch of safety 'crap'. Live fast, die stupid, I guess. In the case of cars like this, though (that CAN'T hit 200MPH), it feels like they should be tracked 'as-was'. YMMV. :D
