Didnt now it was on utube, have to watch when I get home, blocked in work. He told me he hit the wall at turn 7, second person this year to badly damage a newly built race car, thinking about it I may keep my car of the trackk until next year don't want to be the third.

I don't know sepang that well, but he didn't seem to be on the correct line, looks like he dropped a FL wheel off the track and that just 90 degrees head on into the wall .... redfaceuch:

I think he is still learning the car too.

Yep what he told me was he was to far to the left going into the right hander and braked with the inside wheel on the slippery kerb, would have been better running wide as there is loads of run off at 7, but isn't hind sight a woderfull thing to have.

Indeed, 20/20 hindsight is a fantastic (if expensive) ability!!

liking the TR7 .... wonder if a V8 can be sourced biggrin

the second 5'er looks a bit too tidy to bugger about with, lovely looking car though!

I lready know for a Rover v8 and I got a garag 5 speed that would fit, just need the money to buy the tr. The red BMw looks great and if it has classic road tax then 700 rm a year and it must be good to have passed the inspection. I'm thinking about the tatty BMW to put the engine and box in my 635 he want 6,000rm which is cheap for a donner M engine
