a mate of mine went to ballarat to race his '32 coupe

he didn't have a good day

is he ok?

hope so

that looks like a nasty crash

Posted: **Wed May 28, 2008 8:50 pm**

Had heard about it but had not seen any pics, not pretty. From what I hear he was a bit sore but not as battered as the A coop was...

Good thing he had all the protective gear needed, sure did its job.

How? Why?

Ratbox,
As all the circuit boys say BIN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hope your mates ok
Looks like a steel bodied car, thats probably saved his life.

What a shame.

Will he build again or will he hang up the gloves.

and you shoulda seen what that car started as, basically a box trailer full of bits that nobody wanted
his missus has put her foot down and the motor is outa there
