So i was tooling around on Facebook and found these horrendous pictures. I wrote the person and turns out they flipped their NB 3 times at 140kmh and were spared of any serious injury.

Glad to know no one was seriously hurt; a roll over at 90mph, someone was looking out for them.

Glad to know that the driver will survive to have many laughs- probably not at the sight of their baby- EGAD

I guess it's safe to say that parts are soon available??

Yikes. Silver NB with Rave wheels. Hits way too close to home.

Good thing the roundness saved the people!

Bummer, glad everyone was not seriously injured (maybe just their inner child?) But it seems there isn't one straight piece of sheet metal there.
