Felt for you there, your body language says it all....

I guess you'll be needing some new graphics for the front then?

Bad luck Simon - what happened to the guy in front on the left?

[jpivey]

Bad luck, maybe the jade driver should learn about throttle control!!!

[Simon T]

Hii Tim, Yes mate but I need to get something to stick it onto first .

The traction control switched itself off but failed to inform the driver before he floored the throttle at the start, The resulting right turn left the Red Jade with four rearranged corners as it met both the yellow Jade and consequently the Armco. I thought I had done rather well to avoid both Jades and the Mallock but then received a healthy shove in the nether region, the rest is history...

No good at all mate!

Bad luck Simon...looked like you had avoided the accident...but then got taken out by someone elses avoiding action...

there is no place for traction control in Club racing in my opinion....

[dsl2]

Here here Martin, totally agree with you.

[jpivey]

Every car ever made has a traction control system its called your right foot!!!
But i can vouch from first hand experience that 99% of drivers don't know how to use it..

Cheer up Simon, it was pure bad luck and at the time there was nothing more you could've done.
For the future the only thing you can do is to train to switch faster the focus on the rear views or earn your respect through aggresivity, Senna style

[gixermark]

nightmare.....

so sad to see multiple cars damaged due to.....

hopefully yours is mostly cosmetic Simon... the Jade near the armco sounds like it will take quite a bit of $$ to put right
