on monday 11th I went to an open pit lane track day. my father in law was in his 4x4 sapphire cosworth, me, a mate and wifes younger brother shared a XR4x4 turbo technics.
all went well up to dinner time had an absolute blast on track and was doing really well. 1st out after dinner was my wifes brother, like me first time on track. I went in with him and just kept telling him where he should be and I was look out for cars overtaking, pointing to him to indicate and let faster stuff past as he done well for about 3 laps.
on one lap down the straight round paddock hill bend started the drop down the hill, he got a wrong gear panicked and got all out of shape!! fish tale about 3 or 4 times then all of a suddern we were off across the gravel and flying towards the tyres...
last thing I shouted was "oh shit" pushed against the car bulkhead with my feet and bang, straight into front passenger corner.
those tyre walls are harder than they look on TV LOL.























result.. end of track my session, in hospital miles away from home till 8pm. ME- broken nose cuts on my forhead from the crash helmet hitting screen and roof. sore ancles from floor lifting and hitting knees in to dash (see crack) bad ribs back and neck and swollen elbow form hitting the hand brake
Brother in law cut his thumb haha
