Early this morning in the group saw a collision accident originating from the racing track, and this accident occurred in front of the gantry of the Fuji Circuit in Japan, and this accident is also very representative, today I will talk to you about this accident briefly.
We saw the rear car Subaru WRX STi crashed straight into the front of the Nissan Figaro GT2000, and the car that was hit was the "Excellent" award of the modification group at the 2022 Tokyo Modification Auto Show, and the editor had also written a detailed article about this car before, a Nissan Figaro transplanted the engine of the Honda S2000, and the front part was also a putter suspension structure, which can be described as a very good modification work. If you are interested, you can move to "The Track Of Porting F20C Engines Moe Bao Taniguchi Nobuki's Figaro GT2000".
Nissan Figaro GT2000
The accident was learned after some foreign netizen comments that it may be because the front car Nissan Figaro GT2000 slowed down the speed due to the failure, but it has been left on the driving line of the big straight, and at that time, the rainy tires threw up a lot of water mist, affecting the sight of the Rear Subaru WRX STi vehicle. The rear WRX STi should know that there is a car in front of it, but it did not think that it was a slow car with a fault, and everyone can also see that the STi has been on the driving line, and has not slowed down and directly hit the car in front.
The two cars collided instantly
The driver has been treated by medical staff after being hit
This accident was like the accident of Schumacher and David Coothard in Spa, which occurred in the water mist thrown by the tires, and became a famous tricycle incident. The gas car king went directly to the Pit room to do a big job, and was dissuaded by the staff, which directly led to the car king losing the driver championship of the year.
Famous tricycle time
Editor's summary: Then how to avoid this kind of problem, first of all, there is a problem to quickly return to the pit room, let the engineer solve the problem for you, and then go to the track to do your life is not too late. If you can't go back, then park directly in the buffer zone or non-driving line, get off the car immediately and wait for rescue. In addition, it is far away from the driving line on the track, especially this rainy weather, which is difficult to judge in advance after affecting the line of sight.
So you should pay attention to safety on the track, and the racing equipment must be ready, don't say it is a simple track day to relax your vigilance, because danger can happen at any time, and it will not give you time to react. Finally, I also hope that the two drivers can return to the track safely and continue to run as soon as possible.
