I was talking about a crash in the 70's

Mike Thackwell had a huge shunt at Thruxton, I think it was the inside of church. Sometime in 80's. In F2(?)

You just posted the reason I fell in love with the Clios

I was younger then.....

There was another flip in that Thruxton race with the oil sump pile up too, only just caught by the cameras.

Good news, all 31 cars will be out at Oulton

Cool. Does that mean Simon Belcher has sold enough t-shirts already?

And you can't mention Thruxton crashes without:

I'm mad because it doesn't appear they ship to the U.S.

Would have loved to have one of these shirts.

the onboard from Simon Belcher's car has been released. It didn't load on the page for me, but there's a link you can download if from.

I tell you something, it also looks like he clipped the inside of church from the video. Fairly spectacular

Yikes!

Jackson goes into business for himself against the BARC and the MSA.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

He's bang on the money though.

For me the attitude is key but Alan Gow could do more to protect his teams and drivers in these situations. For instance when the cars started flying of the road and the tyre walls were being rebuilt during the SC periods, the red flag should have thrown. Either to suspend the races temporarily or permanently. There is no doubt in my mind that the size of Belcher's accident was a direct result of the way the tyre wall was hastily and literally thrown back together after the previous crash just a few laps before.

Belcher is now confirmed for Oulton. The car was stripped on Tuesday and is now being rebuilt as we currently speak.

Ollie Jackson and Robb Holland are also going to be there
