a couple more shocking accidents today, the ute crash was really bad i hope the remain driver in hospital is alright. Heard some news through Glenn Seton this morning that Ash Cooper may not make it through. At the request of the family and V8SCA there has been a tight media hold on the drivers condition to respect the family.

Pitty the Keonigsegg found the wall today (the damages would be worth more than the ute crash) the car seemed very unstable under heavy acceleration out of the corners nearly spinning a couple more times. Andrew that would have been just down from you when it caught fire yeah

[Nightcrawler]

err this CCR on fire? He was having a super bad day!

Plus some of my fave pics from today

[Whiplash]

i have the sudden urge to get my car tinted.

found some brakes for you Andrew, Carbon Ceramic ones for the 34???? only 13k PER DISK!!!!! and they only last 2 rounds under racing conditions. Was also a bit speechless to find out the 430 is running a special exhaust system which cost 40K

[Madaz]

lol too much money in car shit

[Whiplash]

UTE ACCIDENT

another driver in critical condition, not a good weekend for crashes

[Inline 6]

damn crazy accidents.

but on the plus side of the weekend i got in for free sat sun on the downside i only got to see 1.25 of the australian gt races but you cant win em all.

2nd race was awesome with the ferrari pulling away on the long straight n the lil lotus catching back up in the twistys

what happened to the mean green james bond car? i only seen it in the pit paddack with the bonnet off during the weekend and they didnt even look like they were trying to fix whatever was wrong. did it run at all?

[Hotwire]

Pretty sure the Aston bent a lower control arm in the rear (LH maybe?)

Commentators said there are no spare parts in Aust, so they have to get one made from scratch... but either way it was out for the weekend..

[Whiplash]

the aston broke its rear lower control arm of the left hand side. It also suffered a fair bit of damage due to the idiots dragging the car out of the gravel, over the road and up onto the truck on 3 wheels. Not a very happy driver/owner in the paddock afterwards

a new part was being fabricated but wasn't ready in time.

well done to Alan for making it look like a race, he was playing with the lotus. The boys down in th ecoopers garage weren't the least but worried about the lil yellow thing
