Thundersport GB crash

[Red Devil]

Here's my video from the final race of the weekend from the Thundersport GB meeting at Brands Hatch Indy which unfortunately ended prematurely after a coming together at Druids!

I know I was being a big girl on the first lap but we were held on the grid for about 10 minutes due to a crash on the warm up lap and the Dunlops were a bit twitchy even after a couple of warm up laps!

What happened to the other guy?

[Red Devil]

[Llama-Farmer]

Yeah hitting the barrier tends to do more harm than good, particularly to the bike.

[garth]

Fuck did he come from!

Uninjured?

[Red Devil]

[bikertomm]

Awesome man, that's gutting!

Glad you're all good though. I think every video I've watched of yours is you binning a bike of some description

Do you mind me asking how you got into racing?

Like had you been involved since a young age or just ridden road at a 'fast pace' and fancied a bit of track action?

Kudos to you man, I remember going to an event at CMC last year, maybe the year before and Jamie Whitham was there and he was saying that anyone can go do a track day, but he had tons of respect for anyone who actually got on the grid and raced competitively. So good on you for doing that.

In an ideal world, I'd have the time and money and talent to do some local race series, but realistically I'm unlikely to have many weekends off, or be earning enough money in the next 5 years, and possibly/probably don't have the talent either. Not done a track day yet, but want to do a novice only day this year, so maybe I'll stick to non competitive track stuff for a while first.

[Red Devil]

Just get stuck in mate, don't worry about a novice only day just jump in the novice group on a standard day and you'll love it. You will be surrounded by like minded people who like going fast and having a laugh so don't feel intimidated about getting stuck in.

Just be prepared to get hooked!

So... assuming that was his fault? How do you proceed with the damage to your bike? Is he liable for it, or do you just go about doing this yourself? Did he apologise?

Glad to see you're okay, you seemed to be doing awesome, too!

Far too nice mate

*notes down VIN*

Might wanna erase that mate, just incase someone does rob it for trackie use on a stolen motor

[Red Devil]

[P.]

Currently selling 1 legit VIN for an R6. £100

Just kidding mate, will likely save you hassle if someone does have a ringer, especially as you are actually racing rather than the occasional track day

[Old Git Racing]

Might look a bit harsh to someone who hasn't raced, but it is pretty common. Glad you're ok and the bikes not too bad. Don't leave a gap next time!
Thought you had to have the vin or chassis numbers on now?
