Colo Crash?


You buggy guys been softening up the trees or was this at a different place to where you race? What kind of 30 metre high tree falls over with a nudge from a fourby at social speeds?


 


A MAN has been pinned to the ground by a tree while watching a social car race near Sydney.


The 49-year-old Campbelltown man was watching a four-wheel-drive social club race 30km north of Colo Heights, north-west of Sydney, when one of the vehicles hit a tree.


The 30-m high tree then fell on the man, causing multiple leg fractures and minor head and neck injuries.


Spectators freed him and called for help.


A CareFlight helicopter airlifted the man to Westmead Hospital in a serious but stable condition.

Aparently not too bad, you know for someone who's had a tree land on them.
Last report was he was telling his fellow campers,(by phone). how his tent should be dried first before packing it up to bring it home
When I get a real report I'LL post it.
Maybe NISSAN 4WD Trials website may have newer info?
