Carscoop reader Maciej sure captured our attention with his email tip titled "My Hero, OMG!" – and very rightfully so as you will soon discover for yourself.
We don't know how much of the fantastic save is attributed to luck and how much to the driver's talent, but what the man behind the wheel of the Mitsubishi Lancer EVO accomplished during the 21st edition of the Rzeszowski Rally in Poland (August 9 to 11) is not something you see every day.
While turning on wet tarmac, the previous generation Mitsubishi EVO slid and fell with its rear end first into a ditch but instead of crashing the driver somehow kept the car going and managed to get it back on the road and continue the race!
Hop over the break to watch a couple of videos of the incident shot from different angles.
Thanks to Maciej for the video tip!
