Crashing on the road is muppet.
Crashing on the track just means you were having a go. Its only metal.

you cant judge him without knowing the details, if he just pushed it a bit hard on one corner, then unlucky. If hes was driving like a cock the whole session, SLJ, or gooning round every corner, then yes 100% muppet.
But all you know is some guy in a cossie crashed.

What Evo has he got now? Is it a new project aside from his 7?

Atleast hes not scared to use the car for the purpose it was built for. I have miles more respect for him for driving it hard on a track rather than "Crusing" around streets showing off to little girls.

My insurance covers me for track days - but the excess in the event of an accident is higher

Was At Mallory Park on Sunday and there was about a dozen Cossies going round the track. One one hand you think "what a way to ruin such a nice car", but then at then end of the day, there only using it for the purpose it was meant to be build, i.e Motorsport. Just hope the dmage is only limited to the shell, as it could have quite easily bent all the prop shafts, and pushed the engine forward doing damage to laods of tother parts at the front end of the car .
