Did anyone NOT make it home alright?
Discussion
Yep, had a slide due to a poxy VW Golf driver choosing to pull out and indicate at the same time, Morpeth to Coldstream road in the Borders.
Jane was driving, did very well to control the issue, avoided the other pratt in the VW, then a 180, then backwards over a kerb, along the kitty litter, and bounced off the barrier.
Offside rear light trashed, bodyglass damage, yet to have report re rest of the car. Suspect new (2 month) exhaust box and pipes are knackerd, etc etc et damn cetera.

Yes, still seething mad about it. Credit to Jane, I doubt I could have done any better in the circumstances, but really not a good feeling seeing it all unfold before you with not a thing you can do about it. Time does stand still during these events.
We had only been talking about advanced / skid pan type courses a few days before: - and have now agreed we'll be booking sooner rather than later.
And getting the anti-pratt rocket launcher/grenade throwers installed asap!!!
Fair comment about the Cerb being a tough customer - took a fair clout this time, and seems to have survived well. My only thought about the 'Gris is the FIA roll cage, but hope to hell that is never required to prove itself!!
