I believe that's Bill Sherwood driving and the blue car that took him out is maintained by a mate. It rolled and sliding on the bitumen wore threw the bonnet, His helmut and the chassis. Also bent 2 axles, 4 wheels and ripped the right hand front suspension off. Around $8,000 worth of damages. He was ok just shaken up a bit.

 

no relation to the above, but nearly everytime i go to lakeside a car is majorly damaged and althought the drivers walk away shaken up, i cringe at some of the cars written off, they come down the last turn to the straight and carry too much speed,

 

I'm wanting to get mine out there soon, I'm hoping I'm not another notch on that barrier

I last drove Lakeside about two weeks before it was resurfaced. I was doing hot laps in a brand new RX8 GT and had it step out at that point doing warp something.

 

Brown trouser moment.

 

It's a drivers track. You drive it at 95%. Always leave something in the toolbox . Bump it up to 98% for a lap, or 100% for two corner. Anything more and you'll take home a cube.

 

I was talking to the guy that runs it and Willowbank, and he, at the time, stated he'd pulled more wrecked cars off Lakeside in 7 months than he had off Willowbank in 7 years.

 

It is a track that must be treated with respect.
