Gees Jabawocky, bit harsh on Paul "the Dude" Morris, he just a clean driver that all them other blokes like to crash into.
Tony Longhurst had the right idea many years ago in the super tourers when him and "the dude" clashed, smack him the mouth.

Stationair8 
I am not going to add too much more, hhowever one memorable moment was at Hidden Valley in the NT a few years ago and there had been a first lap bingle few cars partially blocking the track and along comes PM at a great rate of knots from the rear of the grid (poor qualifying time I assume) and smacks right into whats left.
After he claims on national TV that he was not really concentrating on stuff out the window, rather adjusting roll bars or brake settings. Now for those who do not appreciate it......this was 2/3's the way into the first lap......what was he doing fiddling at this point of the race and maybe thhose items you adjust in a straight line when you have clear space........Maybe he just thought he was that far back he would not run into anyone.....unless they almost blocked the track

Here's another one for the ex PNG types. Where is it?
And what was 'special' about it?

Pinky the pilot
Looks like Kikori?. What makes it different is that the runway surface is Marsden Matting, making it all weather.
In 1997 I dead sticked a C182 in there after the fan stopped. Come to think of it the weather looks the same as well.
