    Driver Jeremy Foley from Dallas and co-driver Yuri Kouznetsov tumble down the mountain during the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb at a place on the course called Devils Playground on Sunday.

    Fortunately, both drivers survived the accident.

    Foley, originally from Milford, Mich., posted a note on his Facebook page:
    "I thought I posted already, but Yuri and I are ok. A little beaten up but nothing major. Thank you so much to everyone for the kindness and support! What a wonderful feeling to feel so loved!"

    Wow that looked like a plane crash. That co-driver is one lucky person. He was hanging out of the car toward the end of the rolls. Those rally guys need window nets. Glad they survived.

    I'll not share this with my co-pilot. She may change her attitude about how much fun we have negatively affecting how much fun we have.
