Default Blobeye spun in Armco - York - A64

Wifey saw a blue blobeye spin into the Armco on the A64 coming off the new roundabout a few minutes ago.

Oops!

Hope it's mendable!

I tell you - I nearly came off that. Cold and wet heading West. Very nearly spun the GT3 into it as the rears lit up. It is a tighter left hander than it would look!!

Grass all cut up, barrier has a big dent in it and a cone warning of the big dent. I can see it has been heavily repaired already, in a number of places.

Used to be very nice in the Spec C Hawkeye then the diff started to work its magic and really pull the car through the corner.

Is that the one just before where the dual carriageway goes into one lane and causes the HUGE tailbacks?
