  1. Glad to hear your ok mate. The shock isn't a nice thing at all.

    It hurts to see your pride and joy like that and due to somone else as well, never a nice thing.

    But, I really am glad the damage isn't too bad and that everything else is ok. Including yourself!

    All the best, Iwan.

  2. Ouch!, now that's a sad sight :).

    I'd take a good look under those wings if it was a frontal impact. Unless you have already, of course.

    Let me know if you decide to break it.

    Best of luck mate.

  3. Popped down to Ears Motorsport this morning to find a silver Starlet up on the ramps, looked to me like an SR but had no stickers on. Exept for a sticker resembling(sp?) a pack of cards on the rear. Black Speedlines all round.

    Reg was R*** XNT.

    Didn't catch the owner has we had to shoot off to look at a new shell, so apologies for the lack of detail.

  4. Hello there guys,

    I really do apologise about the lack of updates. I'm still recovering from some minor back injuries at the moment and the Evo will be requiring all hands to get it up and running again.

    So bare with me, i'll try to get some pics as soon as!

    I'll leave you with a sad sight....

  5. Thanks for the kind comments all, much appriciated.

    @Sparky - Yup, it was.

    @Enzo - I did catch a glimpse of the plate but by the time it was all over, I completely forgot :thumbsup:.

    Police were very helpful and down to earth thankfully. Because the van drove off, we didn't bother to claim anything as the car would be worth more as parts. The police officer said the exact same thing as well. A big thanks to the police on that note. Again same thing goes to the witnesses.

  6. Hey Jake, nice to see you on here (even though you own a punto).

    As Galliano said, the next 20 - 30 days will be rest days mostly. I've suffered from some rather serious whiplash and a cracked rib on my right side but otherwise i'm a ok.

    As to what happened, I will explain. Overtaking on a fairly long straight, about 4 cars in total. Stretch was bang on clear. Got to the second car when a red van decided to overtake as we were going past is rear, no indicators what so ever.

    My brother slammed the anchors and fought life and limb to try to correct the rear end, but it was too late, the rear clipped the kurb and sent the back end into flight. Ended up spinning 360 degrees over a blistering 300 yards and hitting a wall to the right of us. The car luckily managed to hit none of the traffic we were overtaking.

    I managed to get myself together and out of the car ready to give the bloke driving the van a fucking good rolocking, but he drove off.

    As for the damage, well the Evo is a complete write off.
