The local garage that i use is run by two brothers that race in a saloon championship (not sure which). Dropped my boss down today to get his car from MoT and they mentioned some pics were up.

They both race Leon Cupra R's and do quite well in the championship by the sounds of things.

Here's them:



Anyway, from this meet at Lydden Hill at the end of June the photographer got a pretty good sequence of this accident between a Leon and a SKyline.
Thought you might like to see.
(hope the pics hotlink OK).

must have been a pretty hard impact, because its folded the mirros forward, and turned the wiper back to front.

Probably a limitation on power/inlet size or something.

You can see whats happened there, coming down the hill, skylines edged left to get the better line into the right hander, but the Cupra still there, hit the rear hence sent the skyline into a spin.

Skylines fault from the images.
