At 6:15 on the video clip everything starts to go wrong! When the navigator calls "Flat out 10R, Flat Out 10R - Flat Out -Trust Me - Trust Me" you would be forgiven as a driver to trust the call, even so I asked for the next corner twice to make sure we were on the notes and received the following calls from the Navigator: 10R - 10R, 10R Here 120, 10R = whoa whoa whoa whoa" and a loud Fuck from me as I realise there is no way Im going to get the car around the sharp 5R. For those who are not familiar with Tarmac rallying a 10R means keep the foot flat to the floor and dont lift off (in all these cases the Navigators call needs to be 100% correct). In this case we were travelling between 160 km/ph and 200 km and if I didnt hit the brakes as early as I did we would have hit a cattle yard. The corner was actually a 5 Right (should have been taken at 80 km/ph if the call had come), we were very lucky we didnt go straight off into the cattle yard which is to the left of screen as we go off Freeze the video at 5:02 and you will see what I mean. Im pretty impressed with how far I managed to get the car around the corner between 5:02 and 5:03, otherwise we would have been in serious trouble if we hit the cattle yard (they have some serious reinforcement). After I reverse out of the ditch, you will hear the navigators very late call of 5R at 5:16 on the video. Luckily the bushes we landed in acted like a net and although the front spoiler was smashed, the side spoiler ripped off <b>...</b>
