Crash test
I did it.......
I missed a corner on Zandvoort circuit (circumstances) and hit the wall (80 - 100 kmh)
Engine OK, exhaust and manifold, rad and a brandnew RIAL alloy are damaged.
At least I can say that I have a self built car with crash test

Just some muscles having a fight and my Ego is damaged!!
Indeed all the energy absorbed by the engine compartment, nothing in the driver space so now I know my design is OK...

Bad luck erwe... a simple 'glad you're ok' doesn't seem appropriate.
However, glad you're ok...

Bad luck.
Congrats on the chassis though, that must be the "something good" that came out of the incident.

You have the technology to rebuild it.
6 million dollar man time. Hope there's lots you can salvage.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Bad luck, or bad judgement? My condolences are worthless, but never mind, you'll enjoy telling the story in years to come.
Cheers, Rorty.
