It definately looked like throttle jammed, you could see him go to brake and nothing then quickly swerve to the right to avoid the car in front of him

This is bringing back memories of that Mini league you ran Ments .... Maybe you should run another one hint hint

Surely queensland Raceway would have put a a bigger fence (Even temporary) up in the mean time after the 1st crash. I know I wouldn't feel that safe that clsoe to the action with cars going 200 odd clicks!!

Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car and oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car. Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall, torque is how far you take the wall with you.

I agree. :)

Over the weekend I was looking into running the minis again (or something really diffrent) once the teams league finshed. Downloaded a heap of tracks to try out etc but we will see what I can come up with before Im happy with what I can find but dont hold your breath. :)
