James Spicer Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 I'm on now mate but YouTube is slower than me round Harewood Quote
FILFAN Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 Sorry to hear about your little off James. If there is anything I can help you with to get back up and running dont be shy in asking Phil Quote
James Spicer Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 Ok here it is 1st timed run (a bit sloppy and slow) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHyT9pZLJt4 The accident http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uAReUL9EF5w Looks like I turned in at Quarry to early, half of the nearside front wheel on the grass and the rest is history Quote
Rory's Dad Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 Ouch! On Sunday a number of cars were suffering understeer at Quarry. You may have provoked it by getting too much lock on too quickly. Hard to say really - and I know nothing. Good luck with rebuilding yourself and the Westy Quote
Nick Algar - Competition Secretary Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 As Martin said, "ouch", once you were on the grass it was just passenger time. Really sorry to hear about your off James, hope you can get it sorted soon. Quote
Hellski Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 A big ouch and unfortunate you found the tree but I think I know what the problem was, you had the roof on.................. Good job you'd invested in a trailer and looks as though you'll be keeping your Dad busy Joking aside, nothing worse than hitting something solid like that and I'm sure you'll be showing a few bruises today. Really hope you get the car sorted soon and glad to hear you're ok Quote
Rory's Dad Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 A single seater had a narrow escape - heaps of understeer - lifted off and then headed for the apex. He missed the armco on the inside by inches before he pirouetted round the other way. Quote
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 Ouch. Absolutely, hope your not feeling too bad, and that you can get the car back together. That looked a might scary! Quote
pickmaster Andy Lowe Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 It was quite a distance from the off to the stop and you covered it in seconds!!!!! Hope your not too sore today and feeling better soon Quote
James Spicer Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 Thanks for all the kind words and messages, I'm really motivated to get the old girl back up and running and try and get out again this season. Quote
