Possum

Post by Mathew » Mon Apr 29, 2002 10:05 am

Possum was travelling over the hill climb route the day before the event so the road was still open to the public. He was travelling at about 60km/h in an SUV (forrester I beleive) when a JEEP SUV also doing about 60k's hit him head on. The Jeep was driven by another competitor and was though to have been on the wrong side of the road. I have driven up that road myself in a mx5 and 60km/h is probably about as fast as you could safely go in a road going vehicle with other traffic around. I got quite a few strange looks as it was the middle of winter and my mx5 looked rather out of place amoungst all the 4WD's in the car park at the top.
