We had James Thompson off good and hard with us at Dingle Dell - he almost made the trees, but not quite.

BBC camera was written off - the camera men were only sligthly dented, but all ok in the end...

I had to stand on top of the barrier to get in and see if the driver was ok...... big crash.

Those touring cars are built strong, but when they go off - they go off hard..

Seen the video and interestred to read that the cause was cold front tyres - he should have been going slower then....

However, why try to cut costs on tyre warmers when all the teams (matt Neal included) spend so much money anyway?? Honda had five trucks in the paddock - not including hospitality!!!! And I don't think there's any hope of attracting any nore private cars..
