Too much too early, low setting on TSC etc. Fee is fine though thats the main thing. The car was patched up but had problems relating to the shunt for the last two sessions. IC pipes blowing off, rad pipes popping off.
Wasnt to be
She shunted tyres into the lake behind the tire wall. The car did a nose stand, and looked to be beached about 1-2m into the barrier.
Thanks to all the helped out. Guys from Wallace Performance, and Abbey  The oulton staff etc

top day adam, was right in front on fees bump, nothing she could do to stop it, as soon as the back wheel touched the grass it was just a matter of hope you dont pick up to much speed. did walk past u in the pit lane but you were majorly busy so didnt want to introduce myself.

Sorry to hear about that. The car doesn't look all that out of shape until it really goes. Hope she is OK.

Good to see shes ok and the car is repairable! Its a horrible feeling you get if you're watching and something happens and the car doesn't come back round.

Poor Fee. As said, she done well with both twitches previously.
That corner catchs many people out as its banked but still a killer when power is planted to the back wheels early.
Love the commentry afterwards and the cheeky glance in the rear view "Oh shit, this is being filmed" looked hehe
Well done for just getting out on track in the wet though fee! lots of standing water which is not usually for racing about on in oulton!

Glad Fee is okay, and well cars are repairable. Hope it doesn't knock Fee's confidence at all. Conditions were awful. It went so quick!!

Glad Fee is ok
Shame about the smash sounds/looks dramatic, dont think Fee realised how bad she had smashed it as she got out and you can just hear her go "Aw nooooooooooo!"
