I hope he has insurance!!

Oh! AND this one

Is Brands Hatch a tricky circuit or did they just get a bit too lairy?

i think they just tried to hard.............. it was snowing and wet but Heath did ok and man was it cold but a very good day and my 1st trip in a vr4Originally Posted by Kieran
Just back after an unscheduled stop overnight in Slough - huge thanks to Paul and Soraya for putting us up and great to see you too Graham
Well, what a fantastic weekend - Brands is a great track for driving and spectating (oh and photography - I took nearly 600 pics ) and although it was hellish cold and sleeting at some points in the day, Heath and Paul did over 100 track miles each
After the two big offs in the morning, they called a second briefing after lunch, which was a first! We were told that both accidents were caused by driver error. The Z3 came off right in front of me and I think it may have only been his second lap (on the basis that I only have one precrash pic) and he totally overcooked it coming out of Druids. The Ferrari driver, who had been taking it VERY easy up to the point he crashed basically put too much power down coming out of the corner before the pit straight, over corrected, on the grass and smack into the tyre wall - this from the instructors own words, who saw it all - and yes, he was insured
Big up to Soraya for giving it some on track and mixing it with the best of them - including a very hairy moment when she locked up big style behind Heath and nearly took him out - well saved the pink lady
There may have only been 25 cars in the morning (and less in the afternoon ) but there was no shortage of automotive eye candy with two ferraris, a noble, GT3, M3, GTO, 2 RX7's, an old jag plus of course a fast starlet and a rather nice leggie
Thanks again to Paul and Soraya for your excellent company this weekend and to Tony and Nikki for popping down and freezing with us - great to meet you Nikki
Here are a few of my pics
