Default Big Sorry to all at Bedford for the "incident" at

...the end of the day.

As above, just to quickly say sorry that the track was unusable for 15 or so mins while my car was removed. It sheared the studs on the front drivers wheel (due to a spacer fitted this morning when we discovered the enew suspension was catching the wheel, lesson learnt, the spacer basically shattered by the looks of things). Luckily there is doesn't look to be too much damage. I wasn't driving at the time but I am told they yellow flagged it and then red flagged as there were concerned about people lifting off when they saw it and losing it on the same corner!

Anyway, big sorry!

No problems from me matey, appreciate the apology/ explanation, but these things happen, and if it wasn't you it would have been someone else with something else.

Hope the car is easy to fix and get going again (with better / new spacers )
