Firstly I'm glad that Emma is all good after that heavy impact. Secondly massive respect to you both for going racing! I personally think that no matter where you are on the grid, front, back or middle, you deserve big respect. We own a Mini Cooper S R53 and we have taken it to a few track days. My partner Alana loves it but as much as I loved it the 1 track day I did, I quickly realised that I don't have the skills or the reactions to drive an R53 fast. With how much of a short wheelbase the cars have, it really doesn't give you much notice at all when things start going a bit out of shape. So massive credit to you Emma for being out there. Also credit to your other half showing that you don't need a massive bank balance and a pit crew of 19 people to go racing. 👍🏻😀
Thanks guys, really appreciate that 😊 Steven will be back behind the wheel again this year too for some endurance racing at the end of season, it’s definitely a team effort
Ahh, keep going guys. Big shame .... but at least you are out there. (which is more than most) I watched the off a few times on the video and it does look as if the back was a little bouncy (stiff). Although not a lot you can really glean from a youtube video. I think Emma is doing a fantastic job - and it does take courage. It takes a bit of time to pick yourself up and get going again. I have just watched the (later) ongoing repair video (as well as all the others previously) and I do admire what you are doing and the efforts you are making. Just remember you could be at home just watching youtube videos - as opposed to being the videos. I know which I would prefer. Chin up - and keep going. There will always be falls on the way. 🙂 You make a good team...

@edwardgurhy100 Thank you, really appreciate your comment 😊
Oh no, not again. Can't blame the car, it goes where it pointed, in this case straight to the scene of the accident.
