was he hurt at all?
As discussed in other threads - He walked away from the accident with little more than a bruised ego - thanks in no small part to a very comprehensive roll cage. Unfortunately he then went on to lose the end of a finger in a freak accident while loading the car back onto his trailer. Not a good injury for someone who is a Dental Surgeon :shock:

Nice Guy and great supporter of Group N Racing, our club and the scene in general. Our thoughts are with him.

Yep. His tilt trailer came down and lopped the end of his finger off :shock: It was stitched back on at Orange hospital. Not good for a guy who is a prosthodontist.

Hope he's feeling better soon.

One thing I did notice was NO WINDOW NET. I thought they were compulsory these days (coudnt get my car log booked without it) lucky he did not lose his arm or head as they flapped around.

It is funny how window nets are not allowed in historics just like advertising is not allowed (Bianti Model Cars on all the windscreens)
The Historic boys just don't like consistency. 8)
