    Geez, you don't see many cars survive that. Those R1's sure are tough.

    Bugger. All the best for his recovery though and all the best for his racing in future
    To every man upon this earth
    Death cometh sooner or late
    And how can a man die better
    Than facing fearful odds
    For the ashes of his fathers
    And the temples of his Gods
