Great pics Chris - rep applied for my favourite one
I was wondering about the white "thing" as well, stunning looking car!
Great photos, looks like it was a good day. I couldn't make it this year but hopefully I will next time.
When did the skyline catch fire, after coming off the track? Were there any accidents on track?
yeah was a few drift accidents nothing too major though
I have found out some more information regards the Skyline that caught fire.
My neighbour is part of the owners club and knows the owner really well.
He was very calm after it caught fire and simply said aww well, just have to rebuild it.
he was calm, because he races on the Formula 3 scene and actually owns his own GT- Garage.. so no wonder he wasn't fazed at the rebuild :thumbup1:
But, he did confess to my neighbour why it probably caught fire.. He didn't clean the oil off from the previous run and didn't want to waste the £35 on 2nd run, so sadly, his failure was his hurry to get back out and not clean oil off from previous run.. Apparently, now he said and I quote.. "That was an expensive lesson"
His car did sound amazing and was incredible to watch and he did handle himself well as the car burnt .. but it shouldn't be brushed off that his action could have had very severe consequences. At one point there were 3 feet high flames roaring off his bonnet and it was two metres away from our cars and the stand opposite us. If that had exploded Boosst, Jsj24uk and VoodooVix would have lost their cars for starters.
