Nice going Mark. :yes: Do you know what happened to the red Seat? I saw him in your mirror at Barcroft and it looks like the car suddenly darted off the track? Mike Cutt never ceases to amaze me..  He (red BMW) pulled out of the race on the second lap when the clutch failed. At the end of the race I wandered back to the paddock and he already had the gearbox out and was playing about with clutch plates. :laugh:

The Red Seat TCR had steering rack failure, we were doing 110 into sunny in, no wonder it was wrecked. Paul Brydon used to change the clutch in his BMW every race weekend

Must be why he's bought a Nissan. ;)

Pauls car is basically Eds Meganne with a BMW body, the spec is still on race cars direct

I'm glad he didn't get alongside me!

 

Yep, you'd have been waltzing off together. :oops:

I love the "Jazz Hands" just before impact..

 

Still, better than a pair of broken wrists I guess?...

Christ. I think I'd have had a jazz bumhole to go with the jazz hands at that point.

 

But yes, absolutely recommended to let go of the wheel in that situation (perhaps not so important with a broken rack :laugh:).
