My Thanks Thread.

[Count Grantleyish]

Hi all,

As some of you may know, my R33 GTR met the unfortunate end at DECA yesterday, I essentially drove into armco...

I'm wiritng this thread to express my thanks to whoever helped me yesterday.

Paul (paulr33), you're bloody legend! He went greater length to look after me and my brother who rode with me when I 'introduce' the R into armco, he kindly went out of his way to cart us to hospital for check up and dropping us home.

Jack of Citywide Towing, many thanks for coming out on Saturday to tow my R from the crash site to my place, top bloke, willing to go out of his way to help us.

Dave and Hamish, thanks for sticking around at hospital along with Paul when Dermott and I were inside being checked on (and sitting around when they're basically talking to each other).

Thanks to Ryan and Bec, for organising tow truck and checking if we're alright (we walked away from the smash, it wasn't pretty but we're not trapped in the wreck which is a good thing).

Also thanks to whoever came to see if we're ok, also sorry to remaining drivers who didn't get to drive on long wang 2nd run (that is when I crashed), I felt gutted when they had to suspend the run (I believe 10 of them didn't get to do 2nd timing run).

Whoever else that may have help or offer their sympathies etc that I forgot (or can't remember) to mention, I say thanks to you all.

Lastly, I'd like to say thanks to my brother, Dermott who came with me today and unfortunately happened to be my passeneger when I 'demonstrate' my driving skills, and being understanding.

Cheers

Grant

damn man first GOR then this. sorry to hear bout it. how bad is the damage?

[Count Grantleyish]

Write off for sure but couple of guys reckon it's fixable...

I won't be fixing it, and I've already recieved a deposit for the wreck.

Yeah I think this GTR is a omen.

jebus grant glad you both are ok

[paulr33]

hey no worries and all part of the service

as long as you guys are OK and no pain etc

how are you feeling this morning? any neck pain etc?

damn those airbags do some damage when they go off

[llama_au]

We're all so happy to hear you're both alright. We heard the bang from Mini Wang, stood on the top of the hill and knew it wasn't good.

[SS8_Gohan]

did this happen towards the beginning of long wang?

dude, so sorry to hear glad you guys are alright though, that is definitely something to be thankful for after a motorsport 'incident'

yeah, just make sure everything is ok in the next little bit, you can get delayed reactions to these sort of things

[ssxRicho]

Oh I thought the rb26 may end up in the 32 sedan

Great to hear youre both ok.

Dermott has bit of cramp on his tummy, his eyes are good now. I felt cramp on my calf but I must have over stretching while I was on my nap last nite. No major pains to report.

Thanks again.

Thanks, I'm also glad we walked away from the wreck considering how bad it was.

Yep happened after the beginning of long wang clockwise, rear end somewhow stepped out and played 'have you met the armco' game into me!

Thanks, once again, cars are replaceable and lives aren't, that is important thing.

Haha, 26 won't be in the sedan, I've just sold the wreck (my fastest sale ever) 20 mins ago.

Thanks, I'm also glad both of us are ok.

Take it easy.

Cheers

and i was eyeing off that plenum too....

[N1GTR]

So the runs were starting next to the basketball court? Or finishing there?

You're not the first person to meet the scenery down there, such a shame the result is never pretty

[(B1) MR_fanny]

glad everyone is ok.......good old SAU support =)

[Count Grantleyish]

and i was eyeing off that plenum too....

Why do you want the plenum?

And thanks again for driving me to hospital, pity I don't get to feel what 280rwkw feels like, sorry for taking some of your time from skidpan runs.

Clockwise - finish next to basketball court.

Yes, it wasn't pretty but we got out with some bruises - which is a good result considering the outcome.

glad everyone is ok.......good old SAU support =)

Yes, SAU is wonderful club to be part in, helped me twice, gotta give something back...

well it was about the only part of the motor that didn't meet the armco and i have been thinking about chucking one on the 33

[NUTWGN]

Glad you are both ok and made it home safely.

Was a shock when I was told ( I was on the skidpan so oblivious to anything out the back)
