I was filming the Manx Classic Hilclimb at the weekend here in the Isle of Man, and happened to capture a crash.

Driver ok thankfully, but that neck movement must be a good advert for the use of Hans Devices 😳

I had also never heard of an Elva Courier, but here you can see one being nearly flipped!

Lucky chap. Hope it's not too expensive to fix.

Are flameproofs not required for the Manx Hillclimb?

Wearing an old mac seems a bit casual.

There'll be a race suit under that.

The car seems remarkably robust; it was still apparently straight and square. It was a good example of 'proper' whiplash!

Jesus, it's the fact that he took a couple of seconds to compose himself, ensured that all 4 wheels were pointing in the right direction, then went and casually parked up.
