Interesting image. What's its background?

During practice for the 1997 CART race at Belle Isle, a tire flew off of Mauricio Gugelmin's car and landed in a pond, and it took 15 minutes for a police diver to go get it, which the paddock found quite amusing.

Oh! For a moment it reminded me of that scene on Driven in which a car becomes airborne and lands on a pond

Or possibly the scene in Michel Vaillant where the lorry 'gets' a puncture and drives into the lake. Only with the lake seeming less murky...

I love that scene! The only one better than that is when they stop at the petrol station to refuel...in their Le Mans prototypes :mrgreen:

It is said that HWNSNBM drove on water once. Since then people have tried to reproduce this miracle, to no avail yet.

I bought the DVD and the official game for PS2... just to see how bad they were. (admittedly the DVD was $2 and the game was in a "buy two get one free" deal where there were two games I wanted but nothing else I was interested in)
