Dunno, a friend stumbled across them on the Derbyshire RSOC site and mailed me the link.

Just in case no-one has seen them before

This looks like a very good reason not to buy an ex-demo car from your local dealer.

Must be about that old.

Not very happy about seeing them rehashed.

Talking

I saw this!!!

It was at Oulton Park and I was standing on the inside of 'lodge'.

Loads of people had moments as there was mud all over the exit of the bend. I think the car had three or four people in it, if my memory serves me right!

I took those pictures in February last year.

I came in for a lot of criticism for posting them too

Cool

I was there too having a "wicked" session Joint LTR/SIDC day in January. Bit icy and there were a lot of spins & offs & ettiquette was pretty poor (this TD was the reason SIDC started "newbie" sessions ISTR). I had 3 peeps spin in front of me at Deer Leap on separate laps

You must have the "copyright" on them pics...

Yep last year at Oulton.

Very long thread and a lot of bad feeling about the pictures being posted without the owners consent.

Might be an idea to remove them!!

Thumbs up

I was on the very same lap as it rolled, in a 400+bhp Skyline having the time of my life. We came up to lodge just after it happened and the session was stopped so I only got 1 lap in "Mad Erics" Skyline

I would just like to say that no-one was thankfully hurt when it happened as well...

Nothing that a large hammer and a can of WD40 couldn't put right.

The first picture goes to show just how strong the Scoob shell is...

Hi All

I'm going to lock this now, as we've all had a look. Listers were very supportive to us all when they provided us with a car for the world record powerslide, so I just feel a little uneasy about publicising an embarrasing moment for them again

All the best

Simon
