Not the best way to start the New Year mate! Hope there isn't to much damage. I was admiring it on Wednesday as well. Hope you're OK.

Really gutted for you, your 993 really is a stunner. I saw your car at the TIPEC show and it really stood out from the crowd. Hope it all gets sorted quickly and painlessly.

Jeff hope the scoob isn't too badly damaged.

Hi Mark, I was on the run today (Red Elise), just glad you are all okay and hope to see the car looking like new again soon.

Ouch!

Sorry to hear that, like others was also admiring that one on the run.

Officially slippery out there today. Counting myself very lucky this evening after putting the Monaro sideways on a straight stretch of dual-carriage way (freezing temperatures, cold tyres, rear wheel drive, ropey traction control and a hefty right foot not a good combo).

Wifey less than impressed by my driving "skills" biggrin

Lovely 993 hope all is OK.....But if you will go out on one of Mels runs with the Lotus crowd it can sometimes end in tears....at least Steff wasn't there as he would have ended up beside you.

Much damage?

Oh no. I was also admiring your car on the tunnel run as it's a bit of an eye-catcher.

Hope the damage isn't too extensive and can be easily repaired. Looks like you may have been somewhat lucky in coming to a stop where you did.
