Apparently this was Kelvin Burns driving, and he got out just fine. Not a recent crash, but the footage was doing the rounds of American car websites this week after someone dug it up again. IT was during the Carrera Cup Last May.

The Dunlop sign seems rather apt - If it says 'feel the road' i think he is just about to!
