Not really clever - just i've been paid to watch a lot of accidents and motorsport safety is what i specialise in

its really an awful job to be paid to get to watch racing ;)

that really is an awful job! kinda makes my hobby (job) boring!

Yea this iiiigit in some silver car drove past a few times, and on that sorta road its hard to turn round and come back again so he made quite an effort! i was like 'Yea you want a picture' ;) iiigiit!!

Yea the police were with us a long time so they got to know our personalities more! Im shocked they didnt do a breath test tho, obviously we wernt drinking because we wouldnt, and im SO unbelievably against that, but surely its proceedure? Unless they just didnt smell it on us and didnt)

Dont think that would have been a good idea me doing that with two coppers around do u :dontgetit:. And :- i wouldnt do such a thing :bah: ;)

It just goes to show u how nosey people are!! When i see a crash i tend to look, but i dont turn around and have another 2 looks, and its so different when your in the crashing persons shoes, with them looking and gawping at your crushed minis and pug's. :'(

Ah well! At least the scariest bit is over now!!

Glad to see everyone is ok!

This crash caused me not to go to the pub hmmmmm (my brother being Neil) I'm pretty sure they were all doing a sensible speed for the conditions ( well i hope so as neil was leading) as i hope neil has alot more sense to not speed when people who dont know the roads are following. Me and my ex girlfriend have almsot been hit on that corner trying to find a civiclife.net meet it is bloody tight!
I spoke to Ollies mum friday and she is glad he is ok and also i spoke to Matt ollies brother tonight in the pub and he is glad Ollie is ok and to be honest thats the main thing. Everyone came away ok!

I looked at neils car today it i'm pretty sure it will be fine .....Dad has fixed more smashed cars that Neil has crashed.....Although he hasnt fixed my mini that Neil wrote off but o welll

The main things is that everyone way ok and you all walked away and hopefully will learn from this

Bloody hell, don't know why I didn't read this before, glad you're all ok
Raz, your car is definitly a writeoff and is not really repairable due to the damage to the roof. You'd be best to buy the scrap back, get all your bits from it and fit them to a new car
or
If you get enough, buy a new heritage shell and rebuild her! :(

Seems like everyone was lucky, if you had been going a bit faster then it could have been much worse.

Keep us all updated on your progress
