Not your every day motorway accident...

I'd probably need new pants after this...

Anyway, Mike Simpson, Ginetta GT3 racer. Last weekend at Brands Hatch, the Ginetta works driver was running in third place and chasing down second position when, inexplicably, the windscreen of his G55 was hit. BY A FLYING DOOR.

Thankfully he wasn't driving a Honda!

Somehow, I wonder how your Jeep would've hold up 

[Grant Lamontagne]

Probably better than most compact cars.

True that. Though it would probably not pass over it, but hit frontally. Ah well Chances are you're not gonna test that (especially at 140mph)

I doubt jeeps could go 140 mph even downhill with a tailwind.

Maybe not the hardcore off-road versions, but they claim this fancy Jeep will do 255kmh (which is north of 155mph ! )

Hihihihihi.... A Hemi 6,4 liter V8.... With fuel saver technology   To me, that sounds a bit like ordering an extra-large menu at McDonalds, then getting it with diet coke because you're on a diet... 


Also  doesn't really look like much off-road capabilities are left..

Yeah, those are pretty much purpose built street rigs.    Though I wouldn't mind swapping my 4.7 for one of those!
