    No boar excuses this time! Cold tyres or just unexpectedly slippery? Seemed to lock up rather quickly.

    How bad is the damage? Seemed to be a bit of soft and fluffy tree and lots of sliding to slow you down before you came to a dead stop?

    I'm sure you'll have her going again soon enough! IIRC it was you that fixed a fairly nasty side on into a tree that snapped the beam and made the N/S rear wing all kinds of mangled?

    Hi MK999 yes it was cold tyres and a cold brain I started to brake at the point which I would do with hot tyres and they where stone cold and just locked up. the rally road when sharp hairpin left I knew I had no chance of making it so tried to go right and also failed.
