Holy Snot!!!!
Thats an amzing bit of film, the guy on the bike about 1 minute in was amazingly lucky to stay on.
And the guy that fell out of his bug was VERY lucky it didnt carry on and squash him.

Is is it me, or was 95% of the stuff being thrown off, air cooled and/or rear engined? Blimey...
Cool film, goes to show how close you can be to disaster and get away with it. The four people in the beetle convert would agree for sure...

I felt sorry for the 2 Notchbacks and the lovely little NSU Prinz that all rolled heavily but had to smile at the fate of the Merc. ;D

Good video that, all the beetles crashing maybe because of the swing arm rear axle? They lift off on the bend, the rear wheels tuck under, cue massive oversteer and then they flip. Would be good to go and stand at that corner today and see how many people bin it 30 years later  |

Woah! That's several people who decided to go out for a fun drive round the nurburgring and ended up trashing their car  I suspect its the swing axles with the dubs too. They shoulda been buying camber compensators form Speedwell! |

What an awesome vid!
That guy on the bike did bloody well to hang onto it, and the folks in that Type 3 estate must have been packing themselves!

Bloody hell, was that all filmed on one day?? There MUST have been oil on the track mid bend for all of these to go off. Even in the laid back early 70's I would have thought about belting up for a trip round the ring!!
Bet the cabrio driver got a right ear bashing from his missus in the back.
