And if somebody is stopped the other side of that corner?

Then you get a video like this:

i bet the rest of that lap was pretty slow lol

also why did the idiots feel the need to practically stop 1/4 mile before the safety flag near a corner. some people should not be allowed on the roads let alone race tracks.

that's Rob Wiles in the red car, Phil Allenby in the blue, both very experienced drivers at the ring, not sure who the other lad is in the black one but they were all very lucky.

He's new....ish, and was under the impression that PassionFord was a Ford cult or something.
I now own a Mazda after 7 Fords, 1 Rover and 1 Vauxhall.
I love the marque, but a car is a car.
Wishing harm on others is worthy of the bellend badge.

Phil is very experienced at the Ring, been out with him once in the Scooby and that was very impressive, due to his experience he avoided to crash.
This is what you can get at the Ring.

Bmw reacted not knowing how fast the cars behind were coming, can't knock him really. As said its a blind bend he saw a flag and cars stopping in front of him, he hit the brakes. Scoobys behind was travelling a lot faster than him, reaction times distance travelled ect is a lot greater. Hence the accident. Nobody was at fault it was an accident.

Black scooby was so lucky, blue scooby was very well driven. Most including myself would of hit 1 of the 2 cars or the barrier.
