I'll do another post shortly on the proper racing photos of the weekend but as I have so many crash shots from the weekend I thought I'd put them in one thread. They really were mental!

1. Richard Marsh on his way to the tyre wall right in front of me. I started running after this shot

2. Gorden Shedden on his way to the tyre wall right in front of me! Again, I then ducked!

3. It all goes band for Mat Jackson

4. Even the normally sensible Porsches went odd

8. And finally... Another pilot turned F BMW driver

Right, now I must do my proper post. This was merely for entertainment purposes!

With the JB at the bottom of this crash post you will get called "Bloxham". Just like the good old TOCA tour days!

I like no:7. Looks as though he's in for a flip. The rest of them are very good.

looks like jackson kept his foot buried when maybe coasting the drift out could have worked to his advantage!

With all this running away and ducking i'm surprised you managed to take any photos:)

BTW nice work there Jon

Thanks Martin. I kept firing until they got too close to focus on and then I dived on the floor... I had bits of gravel stuck in my hair when I got home.

That's not a problem that I would have :lol::lol:

Can't beat the BTCC and support for carnage come race day!

Oi Prince of Darkness. STAY AWAY FROM ME. Everytime you appear I either have to duck or sweep up.
As for #97 in the BMW, the little stroppy git was stroppy when he crashed it in the first race too. Opps, Young, Stroppy, Talentless. I feel we have another Scott Speed in the making.

Yes I'm sorry to have done that to you on Saturday Dan.

As I picked myself up off the floor and I turned and saw you all running towards me swearing, pointing and laughing at me!

It was like the good ol' days!

Shutup, you love sweeping! You and the Mrs are always the first out there with the brooms ;)

It is just that i am one of the fastest runners so normally at the scene first.... or did i mean it is the best way to get telly time? Three lots of me in this months "Best of Crash" on motors TV, i'll let you decide.
