According to one of the guys I know marshalling, he got off line and couldn't get it stopped, despite quite an impressive rolling stoppie!

Ahh yes I saw that, was'nt there two down in that left hander ? I was more concerned at dodging the marshal running straight across the track and the rest of them parking up at the side of that left hander. Shame as it was literaly 2nd or 3rd lap of the day. Glad he's ok.

I really enjoyed my first visit to Benson. I thought the circuit layout was really good. Apart from the landing lights...Bradders.
748R once again was brilliant never missed a beat.
As for the rest of the day. Great company and plenty of laughs were had by all.
Shower,beer and bed..great end to the day.

Clint.
