[DeTomaso] Nurburgring memories....

[Christopher Kimball]

The film reminded me of when I was a kid and my family was in England at 
Silverstone (my mom is English and we spent the summers there every three 
years or so).  As my dad and I watched from close to the track, a car came 
speeding arond a corner, slid out of control and flipped.

It was very exciting to watch (luckily the driver was OK as I remember) but 
to my dad's chagrin, he was so shocked by the whole thing he didn't realize 
until after the crash was over he had been clutching his 8mm camera by his 
side instead of filming!

We have a great movie of a car sitting, upside down AFTER the crash!
