yer, but what annoys me is hat fact everyones going 'simons to balme' blah blah. that don't seem to realise that things like this happen in racing. and that he shouldn't have to play for her car, as, just like if i have a crash when karting, i have to pay for my own kart, as its racing, and thigs like that happen.

Why was a 106 racing at the same time?

Of course he should have to pay, it was easily his fault! How anyone can say he didn't notice the 106 is beyond me. The car was clarly in sight 5 seconds before the crash!

The full story is on the Lancer register. He has offered to pay the first £1000 of the repair cost:

Something needs to be done about the differing speeds in this championship, no one has more of a right to be in it than another but the speed differential is dangerous.

Says it all.

Bit daft racing a 106 against Evo's. lol

apparently its two different classes aswell. so they're not even racing each other, just sharing the track

That's not uncommon, happens in touring cars (british and german etc). Production class against works teams.

What is uncommon is 120bhp 106's/MG's etc driving against 500bhp Evo's and the like.

Who ever thought that'd work must be properly stupid. I mean, wtf?!

That looked like a big one then

Can see how it happened though, he was trying to keep up with the other Evo's and just managed to get himself into a tricky situation, that once you're in, you can't get out of 

All happened so fast etc

Unlucky then, but at least it wasn't the SWB 9.
