Sorry reconize the chap by it though.

I've been Px in one that had after liftoff oversteer at craners, went backwards on the grass down into old hairpin stuffed the drivers side into tyrewall which catapult it over onto the Passengers side

Also I was the one who hit the Tyrewall Japfest at camp corner, so understand a bit

Hope he gets it all sorted ok

On the embankment that day, you could hear the whole crowd hold their breath waiting for the outcome.

Must be an awful feeling.

T-Cut might do the trick, they look like more than surface scratches though!

i'd blame it on a dodgy MAF. You'll see it for sale in the trader - Never raked or rallied!!!

Just an aside....but what does px stand for. I know it means passenger (well i think it does anyway)


Poor car btw, it will not be happy with the driver for doing that to it

I wonder how it drove after..?

Probably better than it did before if he's never had a proper geometry setup..!

LIVERPOOL & VICTORIA cover me at no extra cost and as i said, I stuffed it into the tyre wall at Camp Corner (Japfest2004) £8K + Vat and they paid up gave go-ahead in 6days also the cheapest insurance with PNCB I could get at the time.

Otherwise I used to use Competitive Car Insurance @ Egger Lawsons

Only twice once as Px and once when i was driving out of the 30+ Driver training days (Trackdays etc) I've done not too bad.

Far better to Test the "Envelope" on a Trackday than a Road. Normally Scoobs just spin out or visit the kitty litter. Subarus take some rolling normally hit the kerb or Kitty litter sideways.

IIRC AFAIA etc
