Default Craig Lowndes drives for DoDo Racing

Yep it's true - it was on Today Tonight!!!! They ran a story here tonight on vehicle safety (again) and this time it was to do with the strength of the roof in vehicles during a rollover.

OK, it starts with a Ford Explorer on a rolling test bed, we see the damage from outside and inside and then we have a quick interview with Craig (in Vodaphone livery) re the strength of racing cars in a roll over. Then we cut to the Dodo car rolling over and over and some noddy woodduck making comment that Craig Lowndes got nothing more than a bruised knee - Huh!!!!!

Of course the story was made all the better with video from Formula 1, Carrera cup etc with vehicles rolling all over the place - I realise they have a point to make but Jeeze couldn't they do some homework first??
