| It says a lot for the build of the Ginetta that the driver walked away from this crash at the british GT this weekend. Marshalls on the ball again as well, being strapped upside down in a burning car must be one of the scariest things that could happen to a driver. Piccies are in reverse order so go to picture REF JEP_418941 & work back, I think its on page 4 or 5 but more piccies are being added so it will slip down the listing. Top photagraphy as well Motorsport Photography and Photographic Services by Jakob Ebrey

| 'kin hell! That would have been a great bit of real video footage. I cannot be bothered sadly, but if you stuck all those pics into a gif generator you could almost make a video.

| I went to Oulton Park a couple of years ago, and this Ginettea looked like it needed a visit to DentMaster.... ![]()

| Amazing to see someone walk away from a crash like that. Credit to the marshalls. Are you going to OP tomorrow Tom? I think you mentioned somewhere you might be?
