Smashed Trophy @ Castle Combe (no 299)

[MarcB]

Was taken from Facebook and was posted an hour ago from Castle Combe

I believe it was Trophy 299 and the driver hit a wall & possibly rolled after going into "Tower"

 

[Stefan.]

Bloody hell

 

[fairm010]

RIP. I need a set of Turinis...

 

[MarcB]

The Facebook users of CSOC are all over it for seats / wheels.

 

[jamesycc]

holy s#*t. Gutted for the owner. Went out in style I suppose, no consolation.

 

[Kyle beresford]

Another one bites the dust,shame but least it went out in style!

 

[ed55j]

Nooooooo!! Was the driver ok?

 

[Gus]

Gutted for him, hope he didnt end up in hospital.

 

[Fletcher]

Yes definitely trophy 299

 

[Richyy182]

Jesus

 

[green]

Gutted for him..sad times. #shouldofgonetothetrophymeet!

 

[ABOO]

Gutted for him and hope ok.
Hope even more that he had some kind of insurance.

 

[jesus]

Poor fella. Although mine's gone up in value now.

Jesus

[brisa4984]

Not good. Hope he's ok

 

[BoatNonce]

Boosted clio ate it as well today on dean straight. I was amazed it still ran as it went front end in.

 

[Mr Burns]

So that's why Matt Wills has a Twingo...

 

[charltjr]

Ouch. Hope the driver was ok.

Impressive to do that at Tower, although to be fair Combe demands respect pretty much everywhere.

Had an awesome day at combe today on track, such a shame to see this and the turbo'd one end up like that....happens every action day there though, law of averages sadly :/

Another trophy crashed too?

 

[DCELEC 182]

No, a turbo'd 172 I think it was.

 

[DannyR]

That corsa driver had great reactions!

 

[StuOwen86]

Wonder if he had track day insurance. Gutted for him though to be fair if I had a trophy I would be buying a cheap 172 cup to abuse on track lol

 

[BoatNonce]

^That's the one I saw die.

 

[182Trophy]

That corsa driver had great reactions!

Not sure if your serious!?

 

[DannyR]

Not sure if your serious!?

Why, he did? He dodged it very well when he finally knew where it had stopped.

 

[Scrooge]

Lol @ a Corsa B doing corners better than the Clio.

 

[masekwm]

I'm sure I've seen that silver Clio on here or on CSOC (which, we'll pretend doesn't exist!)

 

[Mr Burns]

That was a weird crash... Looks like a rear calliper locked or something!?

 

[dangerous dave]

May I suggest tuition.

 

[Cub.]

Another couple of reminders to me as to why I always insure mine on track.

Feel for the two guys, hope they're both ok.

 

[Gally]

Sad times.

 

[Darius]

The Trophy was mat wills he sold it ages ago to a lad called callum i think, who i think has since sold it also. It didnt have recaros, turinis or a trophy spoiler when i saw it last, dont think it has the sachs either

edit - callum has sold it since

 

[Darius]

was like this

 

[bbracer16v]

Ten mins later it was a goner!! Not pretty!! Feel for the guy boot come off as composite material no recaros no Sachs went to go see

 

[Christopher.]

What a shame. I thought that Callum kid had got it back to near standard before he sold it ?

 

[charltjr]

action day

Ah...... The days where cars go to die

 

[egor110]

Is it time for castle coombe to charge more or limit numbers on there action days?

They always have loads of crashes, maybe have graded sessions so you don't get the vast range of skill levels, car speeds on track all at the same time?

 

[Gibbo4k]

The old Peugeot estate thing pouring out black smoke nearly caused a few biffs. Only as it was so slow out of the corners everyone piled up behind it. . The black type r turbo overtaking on the grass passing 3 cars spread across the track looked ready to crash too

 

[car.crash]

So it's just a red Clio that stacked it in a straight line.
