Just to let everyone know that Rick the owner of AAD and a fellow SYTVRCC member was involved in an accident on Saturday April 5th.

He was driving the Cerbera when it left the road and went into a ditch. He suffered a fractured skull, but is hoping to be allowed home today.
His daughter was in the car with him and was badly bruised and shocked but is otherwise ok.

I am told that he will be off work for some time and will not be able to drive for at least 6 months.

I am sure, like me, that everyone would like to wish Rick and his daughter a very speedy recovery and send them their best Wishes.

Hope his is recovery is as fast and painless as possible.

Without wishing to be goulish and asking for details, was his injury as a result of head meeting with rollcage?

If so It's not the first time I have heard of a serious head injury occuring in a Cerbera, and Im sure a Tuscan or Sagaris would have the same issue.

Just makes me nervous when I hear horrible things like this.

sorry.

Sorry to hear about this, hope eveyone recovers well!

if its any consolation, I was vey lucky to come out of a very badly mangled Chimaera alive, and am back in a Cerbera now!

Its like riding motorbikes though - if you stopped to think what could happen, you'd just never get on one again!

But lifes too short....evil

I would like wish Rick a full and speedy recovery from all of us in the South-yorks region of the TVRCC and wish his family all the best in these testing times while Rick makes his recovery.

Rang to book up a service and was told he was off for a few days. Went in on Monday and he's back up and working.

He's got a few nasty souvenirs of it but it could have been so much worse.
