Driftit 2078 Report post Posted March 30, 2009 This is the world's highest known crash speed on open roads. Well that is a fail statement. Owen Evans crashed trying to break the NZ Land Speed Record on an Open road at over 200mph and survived. But I can not find the footage or any official links for him or the record. Anyone got anything? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jamez 2147483647 Report post Posted March 30, 2009 (edited) i can vouch for it, but no information my dad told me that when owen crashed, I asked my dad if we could get the car for a good price Edited March 30, 2009 by Jamez Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jamez 2147483647 Report post Posted March 30, 2009 cant remember where (manfield rings a bell but i dont know why) and he would of probably been driving his Porsche Le Mans Turbo car pretty loose on the facts, im sure somebody else knows more Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Ari Gold Report post Posted March 30, 2009 was a while ago now, was that massive long road down near rotorua that the option speed trials were held on back in 01 (?) He was lucky to survive, lost a couple of fingers, and had some massive internal injuries. His arm is semi paralysed also. He traveled nearly 500m end over end iirc.

Driftit 2078 Report post Posted March 30, 2009 Yeah thats the one. Obviously that info was just presumed. Not factual. As I am sure there has been many other crashes similar. Here is a good one. Not as fast but he survives. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
