This race was so dusty that race no one could see (officals or drivers) that Brett Loveridge was upside down and Mike came round unseen and hit Brett in the top of the roll cage hince the panic at the end. Bit fighting for all involved but everyone walked away unscratched.
Enjoy ;D

darn cool camera position!!
darn worrying when the racers cant see that theres been a crash and even more so when the officials who HAVE to keep an eye on things to avoid things like this cant see it too!!
Good that everyone walked away but the track shouldnt have been able to get to that point where officials cannot see if theres been an accident. that kind of thing is just risking lives!! not just that if the officials can barely see the drivers wont be much better and the crowd will be even worse - who wants to watch dust? or race in it?
is there a reason the track got the way it did?

Whicked seeing the sparks off the wall. Was the dust from the track or someone going on the edge of the infield, because when you see the clay being flicked up and sticking on the framework, makes one wonder how the track could of gone off so fast. Great to see the guys come out of it alright, wouldn't have been nice for both drivers.

The track was set up for the international solos bikes so it was hard, smooth and dusty. Once the solos had finshed the water truck came out and watered the track, but once the cars broke thru the wet layer of clay/lime it was just dust again and lots of it so after the stockcar race they watered the track some more then put out one more streetstock race which the track seemed to be holding up not too bad and then another 3 laps of the water truck after that the meeting was called damage had already been done.
Lesson learned but dont quit on the club just because of one cock up as I've read elsewhere people are saying that that is what they are doing, how is that going to help anyone? I was just as pissed as the next guy but quitting on the club isnt the answer.
