| Death at Hover's, "buttcrack", James C. Henns!
A jeep was going down buttcrack (far as my family can tell, only a pic of the top and half the hill, but it def. Looks like buttcrack), the most popular hill at hover, but 4x4s made it a piece of crap, so much ruts. Anyways they rolled8-10 times. John Elliot was driving, but did not die.

There is a hill, with two huge hills and a line in the middle, and it looks like a butt. Therefore Buttcrack. Its not too hard to make, gotta have good power and momentum.

Wow what a ROLL cage. That sucks. It's terrible when stuff like this happens. You should edit your post and inclue the link. Sounds like crap.

Oh and since they were both ejected I take it they were not restrained.

Its always sad to hear about a death like this. I feel for the family and wish them well. Hopefully some people will look into better restraints. |

I know a few fire fighters here locally that have had to peel a few people off of the dashboard because they didn't wear seat belts. I hope that someone sees this and realizes that a restraint check may be in order on an old rusty rig. |

And this is one reason the 4x4 I am putting together now. Will have a full 6pt cage and harnesses. Also will be using decent tube. As no matter what the experience. Or how many times a particular track is driven. Farkups still happen. |
