Crash Dutch Supercar Challenge
(DSC) - On-board camera
Driver: Bart van Raamsdonk.com - BRL-V6 #258.
Location: TT Circuit Assen.
Event: Superleague Formula.
Date: 16th of May.
Involved drivers:
- Kevin Riley (Mosler MT900 GT3)
- Rick Abresch (Corvette Z06 GT3)
- Michael Donovan (Porsche 997 GT3)
- Bart van Raamsdonk (BRL-V6).
Situation:
DSC classes "GT" & "Supersport 1" are Racing the second race of the
weekend. In the end of lap 1, just before the start/finish line, a
Mosler falls down and is standing still after the chicane. Bart van
Raamsdonk is driving behind Henry Zumbrink and Henry Zumbrink is driving
behind Michael Donovan.
Accelerating out of the chicane, the Porsche of Donovan is braking,
Henry Zumbrink cannot see why and is not braking, therefore Donovan is
going right to the pitwall, Henry Zumbrink can avoid the before spinned
Mosler. Bart van Raamsdonk is driving behind Zumbrink and in front of
his view Zumbrink and Donovan are splitting up. Only after splitting up
van Raamsdonk gets a clear view but then its too late; Bart van
Raamsdonk hits the Mosler with +/- 130km/u.
The Mosler is flying to the left wall and unfortunately Rich Abresch is
driving the Corvette on the same location, so crashes also into the
Mosler with +/- 150km/u.
The Mosler and the Corvette end up next to each other. Abresch who comes
out his Corvette quickly is saving Kevin Riley who is not comming out of
his Mosler which sets on fire at the same time.
No drivers are really hurt and 3 race cars are totaled because of this
accident.
The story is that the Mosler fell down because of a broken gearbox and
was blocked in his speed. Seconds before another car hit the Mosler
already and this is the reason why the Mosler was there at this location. |
