Excellent pictures Neil. Spent a samll fortune on getting the TVR set up for trackdays but have seen to many incidents such as you have captured at Knockhill so have decided to stay on the other side of the fence. Hope the occupents of the car were OK

Thanks folks, sorry forgot to mention Dave that both the driver and passenger were fine, if not a little shaken..

some cracking pics. is that white focus and ex WRC car? it looks rough, but also kind of sexy.

and how did that guy roll his 306? lift off oversteer and clip something with the back wheels?

The focus is a custom built circuit racer not an ex WRC car although it uses most of the bodywork off one! It won the Scottish championship last year by a mile mainly due to it running nearly 700bhpsmile That was the new owner giving it a shake down on the track day.
Classic Knockhill accident with the 306, back end steps out after the downhill kink then straight into the gravel and it digs in.......game over!
