how'd you manage that in a straight line?

rstoughy · 28-01-2009, 11:28 PM

£uck that was a little close.

Nice work keeping it on the black stuff though

What happened then?

bryce · 28-01-2009, 11:31 PM

Jeez, thank god there was no pot holes!

What happened?

bet you flat spotted those tyres

bryce · 29-01-2009, 12:04 AM

Just bothered to read the description in the vid... I take it you put the spoiler back on after that?

I was at the event when Rich had this spin!

Very lucky man!

At least this time the CSL should be good high up the run way!

Very cool.

Very brown & sticky moment!!!

Yikes! :eek:

RichW · 29-01-2009, 11:17 AM

Bit scary huh? :D

Having done one run and having also seen how much the spoiler was bending i thought i would remove the spoiler to reduce drag - BIG mistake!!! The lack of rear down force cause the back end to come around as soon as i came off the throttle and weight transfered onto the front end

The next event someone actually snapped their rear spoiler it was bending that much! Goes to prove that they arent just for show
