andy james Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 Conditions were damp today at Gurston. Good launch and fine into hollow bend lifted off before carousel and she snapped left. Couldn't hold the slide and hit the tyre wall/ bales sideways which pitched me into a complete barrel roll and landed back on the wheels sliding backwards into the trees. Spent half an hour in the ambulance but only have a sore head and neck but as you can see from the photos my heart is pretty well broken..... This is the risk you take when racing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vlad Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 (edited) I'm sure Keyser will fix that in no time... He had loads of experience with angle grinder on Buster's zed recently Edited September 13, 2015 by Vlad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wasso Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 Flippin hell Thank god you're ok, that looks nasty and not surprised you were being seen to in an ambulance. Close call there chap, but it does look fairly bad for the poor Zed. If there's a way, Chris'll fix it, he's a wonder with the angle grinder. I just hope this doesn't distract your feelings for the Zed . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
