2min 27 sec in - you've got to feel for the driver who was parked up! Ouch

Though he was lucky it was only his car that got hit - white overalls probably not a good idea!!

not done this circuit which is fast.

looks like a slight brow before the bend, and cars seem to be carrying too much speed and or bad line

no track god myself, but just my view

there is a video of lots of NSXs going off at the same place somewhere on yt

Every time I've been to Castle Combe I've seen cars go off.
