I hope it fines up!

Me too. Just got new tyres but not super keen to give them a wet track baptism.

Racetracks aren't usually that bad in the wet. Just drive at 9/10ths and get your lines right.

Alright. Gf dumped so no distractions. I also hope it's dry!

[team_v]

Looks to be dry so far.
I'll beheading off in a few minutes.
See you all there.

Thanks for organising Clay, great job as always.

Unfortunate to the dude who's morning didn't go well, looked like everyone was driving well and leaving space.

oh well, that ended quick. hopefully the fix is not going to be too costly for the poor RWD car...

nb: anyone wishing to do sprint or timeattack it is highly recommended to do a few defensive / advance driver training courses first. it'll potentially save you a lot of things! they teach you a lot of techniques that you don't learn from normal street driving / L learner courses / etc... our driver licensing system only requires you to obey the law and pass the tests, but they don't want to invest or push new drivers to learn driving skills like in Findland where majority of WRC champions come from

Thanks as always Clay.

At least the dude wasn't injured.

[sandwg]

Thanks Clay, looking forward to the next one.

Great news that the driver wasn't injured and the car has a speedy recovery!
So I didn't get many shots on track unfortunately and sorry if I missed your car.

[team_v]

Great photos from sandwg.
Do you mind sharing what camera/lens setup you were using?
Keen to know the shutter speed for the panning shots.



I didn't get many photos this time since i had to coordinate the handover to Gav and speak to QR about the excursion.

Looking back thru our happy laps, we have had 3 cars coming off track and all 3 were RWD!

Glad the guy is ok and hope the car is back on the road soon, but I couldn't help but think about this video as soon as it happened today...
