Testimonial to BMW build strength

This car rolled while running the Silver State Classic. It was running about 135 when it rolled. It was running in the 125 MPH class.

There is no roll cage in the car so what you see is the strength of the chassis without any additional reinforcement.

Very impressive. A bit of duct-tape, a spray of windex, and it'll be as good as new.
