Not ever the guys fault just nowhere to go ! ouch front end job I suspect

[Tamworthbay]

Nightmare situation, nowhere to go just brace for impact! Didn't look too bad a bang though. Anyone remember the clip from the 70s where the guy totals his mini big time then gets out and wobbles away obviously concussed. I think it may have been rally cross but I could be wrong.

Luckily it was at the mini festival so they had panels on sale. managed to get it fixed for the sunday race!

That is awesome mate! Well done for not giving up. How did Sundays race go?

Was the subframe still straight? It looks like its bowed in the second to last picture.

[charliebudd]

started 29th in race 2 on sunday and finished 8th so the car still went well. but yeah the subframe was bent so the handling wasnt great.

Ouch!

 

I was a bit worried that wasn't the end on the action from the way you slammed the door 

 

Who's the TMF jury blaming then?

 

I don't get why he was on his brakes, but you can't really see in front from the vid. Does it look like like he still had enough of a lead to take the line on the corner???

On the day I think they put it down to oil on the track? There was certainly a fair bit of oil on the track after the crashes.

Guy who got hit by our man here slammed the door on the grey car fairly mercilessly.. Or didn't see him (my bet). Other guy had nowhere to go other than give him a shove. Which shunted the bloke over the track. Just the sort of thing you get with a bit of inexperience. We had that same thing at pembrey yesterday.. One Caterham needs a front chassis and the other needs a rear di deon tube amongst other things

what were we just saying about grey cars on that other thread? I think we have both been proved right in equal measure

[Artful Dodger]

Yup!!

Sneak sneak sneak SMASSHHHHH

[Tamworthbay]

Grey all the way!!!!!!

[Spud_133]

I think the grey car went into a gap which wasn't there, then locked up after he hit him and that carried the crash on.
