Good luck Lee, I hope you have a smashing day.

  Cheers Nev, though I really wish you had used any other word but 'smashing' when it comes to a motorsport event!
Ohh dear Nev! Put the lotto on next week! Hope the cars not too bad!

According to Seloc the aero catches failed on the rear which lost rear aero and made the rear wheels leave the floor.

Ah sh*t... Feel for him big time. The car may have been crazy to say the least, he managed to raise above critique and push forward. Big respect for that.

I went to Time Attack today and saw him some time after the incident which happened early on in the day, he's fine physically. I spoke to him about his off, there was a problem with part of the body failing however I'm not so sure it was only that. I'm sure once he gets home and settled he will post up.

As long as the driver is ok that's the important thing. Cars can be fixed.
