Holy shit! That’s about all you can say after watching this monumental crash at the 2012 Pikes Peak International Hill Climb. At the wheel was Jeremy Foley, with co-driver Yuri Kouznetsov.
Despite virtually every panel of their 560whp Mistubushi Evo VIII being destroyed we can report, thankfully, both men are okay. Foley confirmed this himself when he posted the following message to his Facebook page: “I thought I posted already, but Yuri and I are OK. A little beaten up but nothing major. Thank you so much to everyone for the kindness and support! What a wonderful feeling to feel so loved!”
Oh yeah, that’ll buff right out.
