Been reading about the Zen scooby today - Paul has already stripped it down and is rebuilding as we speak - top work. Looked a mess in those shots

Yeah I think the Whifbitz car looked worse than it was too,

I'm sure they will be back up and running very soon

The NSX owner (he used to have a GT4) has described his ordeal here:

There is also a sequence of pics of the crash in that thread,he was lucky the NSX was so strong

We got there just as the NSX rolled. I did quite fancy going round Castle Combe but not now, even greenlight wont give track cover for the circuit.

First time I've seen the Norris Evo go aswell,feck me does it go!

I though it was a good event a lost less chav than donny show.

The Whifbitz RX7 has been stripped or in the process of now, apparently it wasnt as much damage as initially thought. The fuel line caught a spark and went up. Not nice though !!

Some great looking cars there.

Apparently the marshalls were slow onto the scene and did not pull the engine bay extinguisher.

Paul is getting the Scooby ready for Scooby Shoot Out this weekend - I am sure it will be ready :thumb:
