andyb Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Dave, how'd it go? Bit damp? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveturnbull Posted February 28, 2010 Author Share Posted February 28, 2010 More sticky than damp. Two county ambulances, one helicopter, a very trashed bowler, two cracked hemets, a spine board, neck brace, much driving around fast and a very busy radio later, we re-opened the course for lap 3. Got a couple of pics, but mostly too busy to stop and snap. I'm sure there will be videos on youtube soon enough. Saw the shires groups drive past on at the start and end of the day. Oh, and Mr Barrett decided to wash the car off go for a swim. Pics to follow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daveturnbull Posted March 1, 2010 Author Share Posted March 1, 2010 The will be a video of some of the days going on posted on the club website in the next couple of days. I don't think it includes 'the roll' but I'll keep an eye out if it appears on youtube and link to it if/when it does. I just recieved this through the website from the passenger - good to know they both seem ok. Hello, Please can you send heartfelt thanks to all involved in your organisation for the treatment, care and help both Shane Penfold and I had following our excursion into flying lessons! It was very very reassuring to see the professionalism and care from all involved, from medics to spectaters and the organistion as a whole. I would also like to apologise to all the other competitors for the hold up, but they should know that all the systems and processes are there in place for them if needed, and when you are the other side of an accident you will greatly appreciate all help provided by a well organised club. Finally, I am sorry I cant speak to anyone about this, because I would rather do this on the phone or better still face to face, I cannot stress how greatful we are to the efficiency of your club. I have got to go to the hospital now to see the Dr (apparently there is something wrong with my back!!) Thankyou once more Wil Webster By the way I dont think we will be racing at Hogmoor but you have not seen the last of us!! And from another competitor. I was at the safari today, Sunday. I hope the chap in the burgundy tomcat number 77 wasn't too badly injured. it all looked very worrying, but it seemed to be taken care of very professionally , well done It's good know we can react effectively in an emergency.

TSD Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 I was just thinking that fireproof helmets might prevent Pete B from driving like his hairs on fire, but he seems to have found a better way Glad everyones ok. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
