    We didn't see it happen but we did see the car get recovered from the track and then the EVO guys pulling the worst of the dent out the front of the EVO with a Shogun 4x4 whilst holding the guy up in the M3 who was trying to get out & go home!

    Surprise surprise the only car that crashed all day was a UK car

    Oh and i forgot to mention that AlexS was in his M3 CSL IN FRONT of that car so he could have quite easily been the one that got T boned!

    Couldn't of time'd pulling out onto the track at a worst moment!

    What is the score for when somthing like this happens? Is it a case of bad luck for the BMW driver? Or would the Evo dude have to cough up some repair cost?

    the evo was showing off and the track was still damp at that point... = FAIL

    Insurance... yeh right, Technically the evo guy can walk away and say a big F*ck you to the M3 owner.... Track insurance is not required, bloody handy if you can get it... but end of the day you go on track at your own risk!

    Proof if it were needed that the MLR has got its fair share of bellends. Ridiculous!

    There's nothing to stop the M3 owner suing the evo driver though.

    What with the idiot drivers, stupidly long queues to go out on track (open pitlane my fecking ass), and the fact they had given away my 2 x pre-booked garage spaces to someone else, which meant we had to squeeze 5 cars in the GTROC-booked garage, I for one won't be going with the MLR to Spa again.

    What makes it worse with that Evo/M3 scenario, is that the Evo owner didn't even bother to apologise to the M3 guy. Ok, I guess trackday accidents are taken on the chin, but at least show some balls & shake the innocent party's hand apologetically if you're the person that's caused the accident.

    Apparently, according to the CSL guys anyway, the Evo feckwit was seen queue-jumping everyone at the Calais terminal as well. What a prize pr1ck.

    Re: evo crashes into m3 at mlr spa trackday

    Its some serious risk taking imo, i have done a few and never had track insurance, i think maybe 1 in 20 do.

    I think a word and apology was the least he could have done. Csls are about 20k+ don't know i could be so understanding if it was my car.

    It wasn't a CSL, just a 'normal' M3. Not that it makes any difference to the poor guy who got hit .

    It was also a left-hooker, so he took the Evo's nose right in the driver's door.

    COCK! If I was 10 seconds later out of the pits he would have hit me. A friend of mine was in the 34 GTR right behind as well!

    I'm not doing Spa again with the MLR. It was run badly this year.

    Re: evo crashes into m3 at mlr spa trackday

    Bloody hell guys sounds like it was not the usual high class / quality setup of Spa

    Glad none of you were involved though

    There really is something about some evo / scooby drivers that think they are the fastest / greatest cars on the road and are driving gods LOL fact is they are a very forgiving car and in the right hands are freakish fast especially in the wet and great fun. Alas a good portion of the drivers are class A cocks

    But there are plenty in other make / model cars

    Remember a few choice track days with pug drivers in the 5's lol

    Prob the reason I can't drive one as a decent runabout (std) not enough beanies, gold or ability to drive at 45 deg angles LOL

    God I am a grumpy 33 year old

    What a penis, shat him self and stamped on the middle pedal. Why drive like a plonker where people are joining the circuit? Probabley because his mate was there filming it '' look at me im going side ways'' ''oh **** I dont know what im doing '' BANG

    Have a look at this video HERE.

    It's a preview video of the MLR trackday & at 0:42 you will see AlexS just about to join the track with the Silver M3 behind him which got T-Boned on the track by the Heave Ho no more than 10 seconds later!!

    You can see that behind the M3 that got hit you can see the Black R34 that is on the crash video driving past the accident!
