Hi ls.
We were in a kind of "rally" on Saturday, to check out the locations of the things to see on Sunday. We were told that we had pleeenty of time to drive the course (50 miles) and do some puzzles as we went along. We would have time to stop for coffee, take pictures and so forth. A part of this course was on rubble road, which was actually also part of the Finnish Rally (1000 lakes rally). Some of the guys was driving pretty fast, considering the roadsurface. As we (girlfriend and I) approached the top of a climbing road (narrow), I saw an accident triangle. Going over the top, the road made a fairly sharp right turn going downhill again. 50 yards ahead I saw the 9000 up side down. The guy (mid 40s), his wife and two kids were all okay. Only thing that had happened was some scrathes on the guys leg, from all the broken glass, climbing out of the car. So, all in all, he got caught up by his need to drive exciting with 200 Bhp on unknown rubble-road.
The Finnish rescue-service turned the car over, as they (and the police) had already been called when we got there.
Cheers!
