Flying CLK
( This may be old
news to some but I thought
the picture was good )
Article on aerodynamics
and Bently 8
has a picture of a flying CLK
half way down. Hopefully
there were no injuries when
the photo was taken. Can you
imagine what the poor driver
was thinking. I would guess
German profanity:

And if imitation is the sincerest
form of flattery, this should
make Juergen feel good:

When I click on that link a page with an
article of the new BMW 6-series opens.
No CLK , no aerodynamics and no Bentley
at all?!?
Wrong URL?

Yes, that is part of my old site, the page
is from May 6th 1999.
I have not transferred that page onto my
current site as the article is quite old.
But if anyone thinks it would be ueful I
could do that.

Yes it was wrong. I probably
should not have made the original
post since there is nothing
really amusing or educational
about a spectacular crash.
Anyway, this is the link:

It was a Brit driver, Peter Dumbreck. He survived unscathed.

Ahh good - so I do not have to visit my friendly optician! ;-)
It WAS spectacular, but as the driver (and
nobody else) was hurt I do not see a problem
with your post.
Besides that a video could be found at the
usual file sharing places.
Thanks!
Juergen - W123 240D with enough downforce to
handle its 85.75 mph top speed easily ;-)
