Is it Liam's own car though...with all his Monster Energy sponsors on it guess it might be. Still what a waste of a car!

Yep it was his own car.

Still a waste, as it's not a race :sad1:

Lots of people forgot that today.
Also a Mk4 GTI from the UK went up in smoke as it caught fire out on the circuit and there where no fire extinguishers handy :sad1:

Many considerations need to be taken before track daying :scared:

Important Update
Hi All
Due to accident damaged catch fencing at Turn 1 of the GP Track - we have to run with a speed restrcition in place at the end of the straight starting 400 meters before and around the 1st corner.
Please be aware of the 'work zone' and respect the traffic cones and speed limit signs - and be especially aware of other traffic in what now a reduced track width.
I'm relieved to confirm the driver of the GTR involved in the incident is OK, but the remedial work to the safety fencing is substantial and will probably take 'a week'
We will be reminding all drivers about this as you exit the pit lane in the morning.
Enjoy the weissbier, see you in the morning.
Darren

Hope it's not one of Mike's friends from uk-mkivs didn't he say a few of them were heading out there for this gig?? :sad1:
Janner_Sy:
What sort of machinery have you got to play against steve?
Looks dry, are you on the slicks?
Did the GTR have a cage fitted? Id hope so as that looked like a big crash
SteveP:
It was Grey and had LVS Racing and Revo graphics on it.
