A mate of mine was there and watched it happen.

If you're going to go and play big boys games you've got to be prepared to accept the consequences.

That's why I play with a car that cost me £150.

People often underestimate how much Quarry tightens - it's quite funny.  I've had a Mondeo ST that I was following swing out in front of me and sit in a drift for what seemed miles, only to find grip and power off into the in-field.  There was also a guy in a Golf3 GTI that was determined he was faster than me and only moved over after putting a couple of wheels on the grass on the outside of Quarry after running waaaaaay wide. 

£10 says he didn't have track day insurance, if it was his.

Those RS4s do sound mint, mind.

Yeah Quarry can be a bit of a mare especially if you get a bit to much air over Avon Rise.

Looking at the vid though he binned it at Camp which is still a corner to catch you by surprise but not as likely to catch you out as Quarry.

Was reading it on ed38 this morning it left it one hell of a mess.

Damn it, so it is - my mistake.  Binning it there = even less talent to run out of....

Yup, must have been an utter, utter tw@t of a driver to loose on what was effectively a straight!  On other forums, others who were there stated he was actually showing off, by trying to get the back end out on purpose - and that the marshals were gonna ban him from any more track action - sadly, for the RS4, the latter action was no longer required.
