On the theme of big crashes, didnt Rydell have a huge crash in the wet, possibly at Oulton (1996?)
Craig Baird and Tommy Rustad had sizeable crashes at the 2nd 1998 Thruxton meeting
Russell Spence went over the fence (well, more like through and over it) at Oulton in 1999
Also you may remember Tarquini rolled it in 1994 at Knockhill!

That was Kelvin Burt and already mentioned.



Good memory, there's a good onboard shot from Menu's car (I think) of Spence going over the barrier.

EDIT - found it...

Rydell flipped at the Brands GP Meeting in 1995. That was also fairly big.

If its not been mentioned, Kelvin Burts crash at Oulton Park.

Didn't Rydell have one in the wet where he came to rest next to a rather suprised ambulance crew? Can't remember the circuit or the year and Youtube isn't helping...

Yeaa, I do recall an accident matching that description. Wasn't there a rear facing camera that caught it?

Snetterton 1995.

All I can remember from footage I've seen in the past is a camera, possibly rear facing, cutting out as he rolls over and Murray Walker shouting 'Rickard Rydells in REAL trouble'.
In the flip list the only one involving Rydell is down as
1995: Rickard Rydell, Volvo 850, Brands Hatch - flip in race

Rydell's crash @ Snetterton is at the 6:05 mark with replays at 6:39, he missed the ambulance by inches

Yeah that was that really wet meeting on the Brands Hatch GP circuit. Rydell's brakes failes as he went into Hawthornes. Went into the barriers backwards and rolled over. I think there was just an onboard and aftermath of that one. I'm pretty sure Sugden rolled his Toyota at Clearways in the same race. (Also missed by the trackside cameras) It was a pretty chaotic meeting.

All these videos (CLASSIC days, btw - we'll never have a BTCC as good as it was in the mid 90s again) reminded me of the Radisich/Watts crash at Brands - it could have been a horrific result.

Nash, you're an idiot.

Shame for BTCC and us but good luck to him.

RIP to Roger Dowson, the man who brought us BTCC fans one of the prettiest cars and colour schemes in BTCC history (and introduced us to Patrick Watts!)

Please tell me you mean the 323 and not the Xedos!

Hell no. That boring looking, bland car! The purple and yellow Xedos was awesome. And with that V6 engine it sounded beautiful as well.

I always thought the Xedos looked really odd. Such a bizarre colourscheme didn't help, lol.

I see Tony Gilham has posted a picture of what car he will be driving this year on his FB page. Unfortunately, its under a hideous pink and green camo cover.
