Gutted! I take it you have trackday insurance?

 

[Timmyevo6]

[Gally]

Front panel doesn't even look bad, new wing, bonnet, door and back we go!

 

[DB.]

Lol! Id be gutted, i guess you have the right attitude

 

[Timmyevo6]

Front panel doesn't even look bad, new wing, bonnet, door and back we go!

right strut is about 2 inch out of place, needs jigging, new inner arch, bonnet and front panel. rest is re-usable. not like i ain't gunna slam into another wall again!

 

[Naith]

he put his bumper back on and drove it onto the trailer. not glad he hit me but certainly it was rearwards and not front ways.

 

[Timmyevo6]

video here, skip first 1.50min http://vimeo.com/11836903

 

[JoedotwasT5phy]

Good lad!!


6.24 for the crash. FYI.

 

[Porkie]

Was really enjoying the video.... sad end!

What camera is that you are using out of interest

 

[MonkeyKnifeFight]

hmm do you think he caught your rear? would be interesting to see his footage

 

[Timmyevo6]

i use a samgsung HD comcorder on a monfoto clamp.

the other leon didn't collect me at all, basically i ran out of talent because i keep too much lock on when i should of simply let the car run out wider as i was carryin too much speed (live and learn), when i began my slide, the red leon panic'd, slowed down and crossed the path of the leon behind me, he had nowhere to go, let off and lost his back end.

all in all, alot of lose ends!

 

[Tony Hunter]

Shame that,watched vid didn't think the back end would have gone then,I could hear that you kept your foot in.

 

[Timmyevo6]

yep, i'm glad i kept me foot in, proves i'm gettin better. thing is, slicks on the back were still cold and i simply didn't get the corner line correct. BUT, i can learn from it, next time i make a move like that, i'll sweep out wider and know the other car isn't there.

 

[kevin.s]

fair play lol

I know it's hard but you have to trust people around you,our first race at Brands was a bit of a teaser as we hadn't raced with these guys before and you need to know who will give you room and those who don't give a shti.
