There's an interesting thread going on the Stage Rallying section of BRF called 'How many cars have been claimed by Epynt'...

 

Someone put this Youtube link today from 2010

There have been far bigger crashes than that on Epynt over the years. It is so very unforgiving if you 'get it wrong'.

Most top crews have full pace notes for the complex of roads there, but even then it's a difficult place.

Very daunting for a less-experienced driver and even for a really top crew it must be respected or it will 'bite you in the bum'.
