Ekanoo ISF Crash

Ekanoo ISF flipped and crashed on the track few hours ago. Tough to watch, but the driver is ok.

Another angle.

I saw that earlier, that was incredibly horrible! I'm glad the guy was alright. That ISF lifted like it weighed nothing, I can't even get mine airborne if I tried

lol jk

I'm glad to here driver is ok that is most important thing here. I like to commend Ekanoo and his race team for trying with with ISF knowing how difficult for non Toyota base team to even attempt to race this car. Yea driver train may not be a from Isf anymore but many cars at this level of racing are no longer using there original running gear.

Hopefully they come back with another ISF damn that car was fast it looks like they finally worked out all bugs ashamed it crashed.

Lol! I think you meant, "That'll buff right out." But to the OP, that was sad to watch. I was curious if that ISF was really a fully tuned and built true ISF containing our yamaha 5.0 engine and tranny?

A lot of work and testing went into something like this. It's unfortunate the result ended up the way it did. But he lifted a great amount. Hopefully he'll be alright.
