You maniac - you were using nearly a quarter turn on your steering wheel and leaving 2/3 of the track clear on the inside!!
What was the damage? I imagine his caterham would have come off worse?

I saw the two of them and for about the only time I actually gave them loads of room (MSA blue flags are very different to FIA blue flags (immediately get out of the way) in the U.K. the faster car has to find a way past.
The post we put up, I had previously been accused by the driver of turning In on him
As per the post with the video.. look at my steering beofre and after the impact
Race of Remembrance 2021 - car 155 ‘Barbie’ Basically it ended any chances of a good result for the car, never mind the ££££s of damage upright, bearing, wishbone, track rod, shaft, door, rear 1/4) caused by the drivers careless move that never really looked like it would work
It happens I guess, but easily avoided.

Re: When you get collected by an influencer (racing)
Is there any video floating around from the other cars? It’s obvious from yours that you left space for him, couldn’t see in the mirror if he’d locked up or something to cause him to go so wide of the apex and hit you.

Cunt in the Caterham had been watching too many Verstappen overtakes on Hamilton
Given how narrow Caterham 7s are, you probably gave him two car widths, as the kerb is probably half the width of a C7!!

Be interesting to see if you get a reply on the socials from them.

Can’t open Instagram but isn’t lovecars Tiff Needle’s platform?
Cunty crash though.

This is their video, not watched it but a bit surprised they miss out an incident like that! Assume the marshals didn't get involved?
Re: When you get collected by an influencer (racing)
The only way that could be turning in on him was if he was going straight on (as per Jobbo's comment). Maybe it's been left out of their vid because Tiff had a word.
Re: When you get collected by an influencer (racing)
That was my response, if I turned in it would be all over their socials, we had an SD card issue that’s taken ages for me to see it and prove to my teammates it wasn’t my faultspeedingfine wrote: ↑Sat Feb 05, 2022 6:47 pm

Not searched too hard for the other caterham but now I have seen it I might…

Don't blame you. Look forward to their wriggling and bullshitting, can you post a link?
Re: When you get collected by an influencer (racing)
You’ve had a reply!
Re: When you get collected by an influencer (racing)
So does that sort of thing just get put down to "shit happens" as part of the race and you are left with the bill to put your car right?

Isn't that part of the risk of going racing?
Re: When you get collected by an influencer (racing)
I guess that's what I was wondering - is there anything in place which gives you some sort of comeback for things where someone is just out of their depth or pulling stupid manoeuvres, or is it just part of racing? I guess at that level there's no body who would want to get involved in refereeing stuff like that so to speak.
Cheers,
Mike.

Yep, all part of the risk.
Pretty sure you can buy racecar insurance, but I bet it’s not cheap.
Same as a trackday, crash your car, or if someone else crashes into you tough. Either suck it up or make sure you’re covered before going.
