Yeah John is ok - Freaking scary moment seeing him come across into my lane at 150mph+.

For those who want to know the cause of the crash was a rod coming out of the block.

Yeah that would've been sh|t scary. Very lucky you weren't in front or side by side or he might've taken you out and the whole situation could've been a LOT worse!

Dam - so the engine was toast before hitting the wall - bugger! Hopefully some parts are salvageable

Shiiit, I came down in the Supra to watch with my mate... Was guttered to see this - heart dropped! Hope you're all good now John.

The only time I didn't have my video camera with me too, what are the odds.

I was very lucky to walk away from that crash as i did hit the wall hard at well over 200kms just befor the finishing line, still very sore around my chest but slowly getting better, we have not had a chance to have a look at car yet to see what happend but we do know that there is a hole in the side of the block, tomorow we are going to pull it apart and then we will find out and i will let you know.
