Wow, there's a lot of chaos in that Jaguar photo, look in the background!

The first one is my favourite, I think the angle is a bit too much on the second though. The Radical pan would've been great had it been side on I think, or more of the front than the back. Nice photos anyway, it's only ever rained when I've been to Brands! :mad:

Hi,

I was racing my self at Brands This weekend in the same race as the Jag's spinning. This particualar race is under investigation by RAC Stewards. We are trying to peace together what happened, and if someone was to blame.

Do you have any more pictures of this incident involved in this race?? They are valuable for our club to establish exactly what happened and who was to blame as it was a rather serious incident.
And do you have any pics my dark blue Jaguar XJ, number 12 from the same race??

If you do could you please email them to:- jeffery1104@hotmail.co.uk

P.S - I saw your golf parked at Paddock Hill, very nice....
Thanks
Matt

3 and 5 for me! Sounds a brilliant and interesting weekend for sure. Need to get some track racing experience this summer me thinks:)

Classic car racing, in the US, there is a no contact rule. You bump someone accidentally or not and you are out for a few races!!! Some of the cars I used to race are worth several million dollars compared to my $100k Porsche!

Here its really common sense, most people are driving their own cars, and everyone is aware that racing incidents happen. Its how you resolve the mess afterwards that is the problem.

Some formulae seem to forget this, especially those feeder series for up and coming drivers who want a career in driving - they'll drive over/around / through anything or anyone to get an extra point - not their car : not their problem...

Open wheel racers are most aware as tyre contact can flip or launch a car, and they can easily get their wheels tangled.
