Didn't hear much about Robbie Gordon's accident I was up at off road section he must have rolled his truck 3 times, it started and he drove it to pit area, just checking he is ok!
If he wants photos of accident I have about 20 biggest crash I have seen at goodwood!

Someone told me it did 4 rolls and he still drove it back hehe

Did you get any pictures of the other offroaders?

Video from the Deguilo's (The yellow Milner R5 doing demo's) of the roll, quite a hit!

I was having a nose around those off roaders on Thursday, the suspension & roll cages are serious bits of kit designed to take crazy amounts of abuse.

Still, 4 rolls an drive off is good showmanshiptongue out

I wondered what had happened to that, it was looking in a bit of a sorry state in the paddock.

Nice job!

Did enjoy watching those things around the track, you can still hear the V8s up by the rally course.

My wife saw this happen and called me over as the dust was settling. We had just been saying that it was just too mad! The marshals looked a bit stunned, then ran over to where Gordon's truck was (luckily on its wheels). The other truck hooned over, had a quick chat with Gordon, then carried on going bananas at the top of the course. Meanwhile, Bobby Gordon just started the truck and pootled off back to the pits. Seriously well-built piece of kit, though I think the drivers may have some loose bits!
There's a clip of it on Instagram...
