You stopped queuing with me because you kept mid fragging against their silver/gold tactics and feared the deranking

sounds like 2 guys were in a decent accident at winton over the weekend. they got airlifted from the track. neither had ambulance coverage...

people are chipping in and doing fundraisers to help cover the cost. Discuss.

 

 

Obviously its terrible, im glad theyre making a full recovery. I'm not surprised, but I also think its pretty silly that people will fork out for all the expenses that come with tracking a car yet not have ambulance coverage, or at least some sort of health insurance. or is this some of that $60 helmet - $60 head sort of analogy time?

It always amazes me that people have this free money available to throw at whatever fundraiser / gofundme appears on social media, when there are already plenty of charities before the fact that they could give to. Seems only the stuff that confronts them in the face warrants throwing money at it to make the bad feels go away. Ignorance is bliss.

And yeah, for the most ridiculous things. Like that woman who got filmed on a bus by the students making fun of her being old and ugly...so ended up with like 80 grand in cash from people who started a gofundme. All part of that society that supports the idea suing organisations for millions will fix the wrong.

yeah im not one to donate to things unless there is like a personal reason or someone I know is making an effort to support something. for eg a friend doing a run for beyond blue.

but funding someone else's mistake... its like if i get caught drink driving and then ask others to help chip in for the fine because i got no money.

[emts]

this along with ppl not having travel insurance then asking for a hand out to get home.

 

how you turn up to a track with no ambo cover is beyond me.

 

that said it is EXE club so...yeah

Can I start a gofundme page for VWL to recoup their losses from 88e?

[blah_blah]

Anyone know the circumstances of the crash and extend of injuries?

[UNR33L]

Severe trauma to the wallet 

[Leroy Peterson]

100% of money raised, which means they got $2500 since last night.

looking at fb someone asks: " i was under the impression that when events are help at race tracks and the organisers have to organise the insurance (aasa etc) doesn't that cover things like this? " Which is a semi-warranted question, but also a bit ignorant.
Response: " AASA/CAMS insurance for is Public Liability + ambulance costs @ the track; it doesn't cover medical transport from track to hospitals and other medical expenses. Unlike an accident on the road, the TAC also won't get involved as it is not a road accident. This is why it's important that all participants read the conditions of what you're signing on for and are aware of the consequences of the activities we choose to participate in. "

the plot thickens....

Why stop there, we need one for the thousands of Chinese tipping money into crown casino and having to drive home empty wallet to a Toorak mansion

[blah_blah]

I guess that is a post from the guy that crashed?

Would assume if you can afford to track i assume a modded 350z prob can afford the medical bills

But who knows they are probably a tight run group, know each other really well so just helping each other out

Ahhh the old Aussie saying she'll be right

The other dynamic I find interesting here, that you've just put forward...would they be more deserving of the charity if they copped some lift off oversteer on a track because they were noobs, versus a noob mistake in their setup where we can retrospectively say "what an idiot, belting around semis in the wet..."
