It is unlikely that he would ever see what is written here, but at this stage I am only prepared to say that even though he was a faster car passing me, he was totally out of control. Unfortunately my car is probably a "write off" and I need to sit back and assess the best way of returning the car to the race track. At this stage it is more than likely that I will now be forced to sit ou this years motorsport, which will be the first time since 1981 for me.
The cars B pillar is pushed in approximately 8" at sill height and about 10-12" higher up. The roll cage is broken and the door intrusion bar is wedged against the seat and the seating postion appears about 3-4" to the centre of the car. The car does drive, but body is bent like a banana and best described as stuffed.
From a personal point of view, I am OK, except for some sore muscles in thigh, side and shoulder. The intrusion bar did its job and a few years back i changed the seat form its original circa 1977 Recaro to a more modern fibreglass seat with high sides, which I believe saved me from further injuries.
Althought I am very P****d off it is only a car that can be repaired/replaced if funds EVER permit, and Philip now has a spare set of mechanicals for his race for the rest of racing season.
