Saw that vid .... his wallet won't be happy ... lots of expensive carbon aero missing off the car as it limped back to the paddock.

I'm sure the wonder of our portable telephonic apparatus will allow us to meet up at Goodwood 🙂

Definitrlely 'exit stage right' at some speed ... but if he was out of shape it was the better option than trying to get through the gate ... it's a narrow gap and there's some seriously solid things to hit if you're even a few inches off line!

The speed was pretty scarey to me.

Thank you for your insight.

Glad he was ok - the wallet will recover given time..

You are right laugh2

I'm glad you are both safe and well. It must have been frightening even though it was at low speeds. How do these wazoks get a licence?

Glad you're ok Rich. I found Wiscome plenty narrow and twisty enough when I was hillclimbing motorcycles, in a car it must be properly sphincter-clenching if you get it wrong.

Thank you Bob it was.
How they ever got a license is bewildering as you say.

Thank you Tim.
I can’t imagine that on a bike, I found the couple in the orange 600 sidecar outfit frightening watch, they are husband and wife.

Very pleased there were no injuries.

You can buy cars - hopefully insurers will sort things out for you and the Mini people promptly.

Be interested to find out if the police will take further action against the idiot.

Ruddy heck Rich. Glad you're all OK.
How did he get a license? Simple - it was before he became an impatient d1ckhead with an inability to plan ahead. Hopefully he won't have the use of it for a period (though I have my doubts on that score). (He wasn't a chef by any chance? Just thinking back to your previous 4/4!).

Take care!
