    Looked a lot worse standing in front watching more and more roof come my way.

    Very close to a one wheel drive!

    Josh did very well, with me screaming in his ear over the bluetooth, to turn the front wheel into the roll and accelerate

    Most other cars either rolled there or got bellied on the large rocks - to recover another car they had to drag one of the big rock at the front out

    Nice driving Josh, any damage to the front diff housing? Looked as if it hit that rock at the bottom pretty hard.
    I am certain the camera still doesn't do the actual event any justice. It almost looks flat, then wham your about to roll
    I really have to get to one of these events in the future. Just to heckle you guys non stop
    I rule!!!

    Front diff is laminated and very thick - still has a small dent!

    Rear lost the bolt on diff cover which I suspect saved the diff.

    Fuel Tank is concave though - how it did not split beats me

    See the other stills with better angles plus other cars on the Digital Stills facebook page
