VW TDI Cup Crash

Through our sister company, Truechoice, we sell a lot of road racing parts and safety parts. One of our vender's sent us this and I thought it was worth posting.

SCCA Pro Racing Volkswagen Jetta TDI Cup driver Devin Cates had a high speed roll at Round 7 of the series in August........he went off big time at the infamous "Canada Corner" and sustained major damage to his car. Thanks to all of the safety equipment he was wearing - including the defNder Head and Neck Restraint - Cates was able to walk away from the crash to fight another day. He rebounded quickly, with a double header opportunity at New Jersey Motorsports Park this past weekend. Cates wasted no time, with a convincing win at Round 9. The win earned Cates a black colored defNder, which all TDI Cup Winners have received this season.

See the video of his Road America crash here:
