Spa, a Radical SR3, a Caterham, a track and a crash!
managed to convert the file to an uploadable version that photobucket would accept. sorry about the logo but the file converter was free.
this footage came from one of the trackside cameras they use in race control to direct the race. race control said it was the fault of the Caterham for pulling across the track and hitting me when i was almost past him. [/quote] Dario

Ouch! Hope you're ok and that there wasn't too much damage ? Did you catch-up with the Caterham driver?

He clearly moved into your path. Much damage to your car?
Did you have words with Mr Caterham in the pit lane? |

sorry to hear about this Dario. Are you insured? Was a track day right not a race?
Love the Escort WRC Cosworth that was behind you!

GULP just to add insult to injury. he and his passanger walked away! lucky bunny. Dario
