once I got to 3:32, I came to the realization that a roll cage is not an optional thing but mandatory for the 2002

haha, no just need to be prepared for turns apparently since that roof doesn't seem too stable. At least I have 3 point harness on the 69

Clip was funny and frightening at the same time. Wonder if the music had something to do with it. Also, speed seemed reduced so accidents may not have been that deadly.

It was just strange seeing these rollovers and thinking "ehh modern racecars roll like that all the time, just a mild crash." Then you realize that the driver gets out wearing normal street clothes and that it was in fact their daily driver they just trashed.

- and their head that just shattered that windshield

Today's cars don't roll like that... actually those only rolled because of the high curbs. If the curbs weren't there, they wouldn't have rolled.

It's actually not only the curbs - it's the fact that a lot of the cars had a narrow track with soft suspension. Get it going too far sideways, it catches and over you go. Check @2:18
