Dunlop Series Bathurst 2016 - Jack Smith Crashes Hard

[@peteralexander3034]

Glad to see Jack was ok, terrible crash, such a lucky boy. But unfortunately, by all reports from the V8 Sleuth Aaron Noonan, this car is off to heaven now after this accident, very sad. Was Fabian Coulthard's Wilson Security car at Paul Cruickshank Racing in 2009. Only one more round and it could have been racing in the Kumho Series next year (potentially in that same livery). But some things just aren't meant to be are they. R.I.P 888-017 :'(

I see this car has been brought by another kiwi and is planning to ship it back to NZ returning it to its 2012 DJR livery.

@@darrenjohnson3267 Indeed Darren, I have seen that story too. Beyond overjoyed to hear it of course. Absolutely thought this car was a goner after this accident, extremely happy to be proven wrong as of today. If I was restoring it though I would be putting it back into the Jim Beam 'Devil's Cut' livery it carried earlier in 2012. That was a wicked colour scheme for sure. Cheers big time to Shane Hunt & Richard Atkinson for ensuring this cars survival in the first place most importantly though :)

I thought this driver may have had talent, turns out I was wrong, crashing is his thing
