what was the death toll in the 70s? Car safety looks to have moved on quite alot too!

Bloody high i would imagine considering how many people were flung from their seats in that video clip.

Bear in mind that's a compilation of someone standing there on the peak days of the year during that period, at one of the most popular locations to have an off.

Of course, there will have been significantly more injuries in that period though due to no belts and cars being in the main designed so badly that they did really odd things when they got out of shape.

Looking at the amount of crap that fell out of that honda i'm staggered that anyone can just rock up and throw the same car that they did their shopping in that morning round a genuine racetrack.
