Giles tout terrain Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Rumour has it that Pete's car is not to well? Hope he and his co driver were ok? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigant Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Hi I was there as a spectator on Sunday and both driver and passenger walked away unscathed, although I bet they both had aches and pains the next morning. If I can work out how to add some photos, I will post some picks of their vehicle before the incident, when they looked very quick and competitive and a couple from after the impact when they were trying to work out how to get the vehicle home!

daveturnbull Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 how did it get like that? A bit of speed, some bumpy ground and a tree in the wrong place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retroanaconda Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 That's the second serious accident I've seen in the past few months, luckily this one was non fatal. Nasty crash there, some force to rip the axle off the back of the truck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveturnbull Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 Not that serious - it was the car that took the hit mainly. Just a bit of an abrupt stop for the occupants. Russ (the passenger) sat in with Rhino Ray for a lap afterwards, which apparently hurt more than hitting the tree did. And that's just the difference between 100"/Fox and short wheelbase/bargain bucket shocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
