    was a rally good weekend, really warm, although the track claimed a few cars, no room for error if you were pushing on, 4 cars were totalled by 3 pm.

    Ill post pics and videos Later when there uploaded. all the pictures and videos I had seen of the place did no justice to how steep the hill where both up and down,

    Ect was 1st off at about 100mph cleated the rich and into the banking and fence, look to be the least damage out of all but passenger broke his wrist or arm, Mx5 was the 2nd, rolled twice into a field windscreen folded down doors hanging off was a reall mess the Subaru Impreza, rolled, all the roof caved in. And a Honda Accord in some trees never sea that one, I believe there was more crashes on Sunday aswell, I know of a Volvo that rolled off the track.
