Searching for a black Elise at the Ring 28th August
Discussion
Dear All
Something of an unhappy first post from me. I hope one of you may be able to help.
There was a fatal accident involving some friends at the Ring at 18.40 on Sunday 28th of August.
The people involved are Dutch and German, since I am English I am posting to avoid mis-communication.
If you are, or know the driver of a black Elise (or just possibly Exige) who stopped at the scene to help we would like to hear from you. Sorry no other distinguishing marks, a reg no (bar it being UK plates), or a name of the driver. All that might jog someones memory is I believe I was speaking to the guy from the passenger seat of a white mk1 Escort a few minutes before (we were parked next to one another).
The reason for this is to try and establish what happened. Granted the german police are requesting witnesses and should something significant come to light you would technically be obliged to make a statement. However primarily the reason is friends and family would like an explanation of what happened if possible.
Please note... there is no suggestion of this car being involved with, or responsible for the accident. Indeed it is not known if the accident happened entirely before the Lotus arrived.
If someone does respond they will be treated in an adult manner, no emotional screaming habdabs.
A longshot. But it is a very small world out there.
Thanks for your time.
On behalf of friends

There's a thread running in the track days forum mentioning this crash from someone who was there at the weekend:
