            • All right, guys, take it easy. Andrew, I'm sure you weren't specifically referring to shinygti's contribution. Just a general comment in response to madglf3's query. Let's just end it there.

                • Nat, where's this information from? That car has only one seat.

                    it is sad. obviously both driver and the coach are not track newbies, yet anything could still happen unexpectedly.

                    • Makes me sick. Interesting that their cars are LHD. I wonder if they just went straight through turn 6 due to late braking or mechanical failure or stepped out in early/mid-corner.
                      That's 2 fatalities, one at Lakeside, one at QR, that have happened while I've been involved in track driving here. It's a real eye-opener. You're right, Nat, they say that QR is the safer track, but at 210 km/h, I guess no track is safe.


                      I've been looking at press helicopter video footage. It appears that the car went straight through turn 6, probably didn't even begin the turn, and headed directly for the back wall at the end of the gravel. The entire front end of the car doesn't exist. Head-on with the cement wall. How does that happen?! Brake failure?? Why weren't the gravel and tyres enough?

                        • m2c - Mr Shinygti has been seen at vwwc and vwgolf events for the past 3 years. I'd welcome Shane on the track and would love to see how his turbo upgrade goes!

                          Thank you all for reading, have a wonderful day!

                          • Thanks Don. It sounds like he's keen for December when Clay's back.

                              Bugger, guess I won't be seeing his turbo upgrade on the track. All's good. Now where to find beer?
