vr6vento 0 Posted November 22, 2004 Report Share Posted November 22, 2004 This happened at Mallory Park TSR track day on 21/11/04.Ran wide at Gerrards, did a dance with a Mk4, decided to not hit Mk4 but hit tyre wall, mounted tyre wall and left car with back end about 4 ft in air and a fair bit shorter.I'm not proud of this sheer waste of a fine car but please see this as a warning as to what can happen at track days.[ Edited ] Link to post Share on other sites
MrsC 0 Posted November 23, 2004 Report Share Posted November 23, 2004 I did a track day once with a friend, and the car flipped about 12 ft in the air, did a few spins and then landed on the roof....luckily i was in a bucket seat and harness...wouldnt be here otherwise Just another warning Link to post Share on other sites
