Can't say i've heard the name Liam Doran before but i dont follow motor racing that closely. What sort of racing does he do? Rallying?

Did he not know the track or was there some sort of mechanical failure?

I've seen the track on forza and it is a tad tight that corner.

from how it reads he saw red mist trying to race a corvett and didnt brake in time. doesnt say anythign about it being a proper race so guess he was just doing the normal public laps.

I have just got off the phone to the organiser of the day and the drive was fine, as was his passenger. Pretty much scratch free the pair of them. It was indeed a big accident and one of those that has people scratching their heads.

As with everything the most important thing is that both were ok

Seen him drive Rallycross a few times and he's got talent. With Pat his old man driving around in 800 Bhp RS200's for years I'm sure he's picked up a few tips

Think he got his cash from winning x-games in America actually! He's got lots of talent - just gets excited in fast cars (just like me)
