Just trying to read up on it now, One report says a broken back, another just says damaged his spine... i guess we'll have to wait and see what they say tomorrow. There's pics of it if you Google his name.

This is what one of them say...

CHANNEL 7 star and V8 Supercar driver Grant Denyer is recovering in hospital after surviving a serious accident during a monster truck show stunt.

The diminutive Denyer - made famous as Sunrise's weatherman - was trapped under his 6.5 tonne super-sized truck at Dapto after it flipped during a demonstration for a Monster Truck Championship to be held this weekend.

Denyer suffered suspected serious back injuries and was rushed to hospital this afternoon.

"Yes, he was in a monster truck crash and has been taken to hospital," Seven news and current affairs chief Peter Meakin said.

"The injuries were thought to be serious, and he is being kept in hospital for the time being.

"But from what we've since been told we believe he is going to be OK."

Meakin said Denyer, 31, was not on duty for Seven but competing in a monster truck sport event.

"Grant has been involved in the sport and motor racing for some time," Meakin said.

"But this caught us by surprise and and we're just hoping and praying the injuries are not as serious as first thought."

Denyer - who could not be reached for comment - was expected to recover enough for an interview on Sunrise tomorrow.

Ohh, and 1 more thing, if you think that your Super will see you past retirement, you're dreaming. Unless your a politician with a $2 million package waiting for you, you've got no chance. In 10 years the average price of a house will be close to $1 million, by the time you retire that figure will at least quadrupple.......you'll be lucky to buy a new car with your Super money.......so get smart and start planning now.

haha, funny how we were only discussing this the other day........biggest insurance company on the planet AIG with over a trillion $$ in assets needs the help of the US Reserve so it doesn't go belly up while all the fat cats upstairs that treated Wall Street like a Casino walk away millions $$ to retire on.

Still think Super is the way to go for retirement?..........maybe property investment ain't a bad idea after all.

anyone know mark denyer (former sunrise weather guy) he broke his back today trying to jump a monster truck over 6 cars... poor guy :)

so Norman Freeman dieing is nothing to worry about

um can you say lag monster Ryan will leave nice trails but :)

it wont be as laggy as you think, with a .63 rear and a machined out wastegate, We have exactly the same turbo on my mates RB20 and thats driveable lol......wait n see. Plus im over too much response....too much wheel spin straight up gets a little old.

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
