Not sure if any one saw it. But the CAPA stunt Utes had a head on at Sandown yesterday. It happened at the end of the back straight. It was so funny. Does any one have any good photo's of it.

I know that they had to pull one out of the kitty litter......... ad that one of the bike riders came off on the front straight... no damage but nevertheless got a big cheer........

Matt Mingay? I think he rides for them.

It was ironic how dad said just before they started that it was really stupid and dangerous to have cars going at this speed around the track, seeming there was no safety fences..

It would be interesting to know if a higher percentage of young Holden owners are involved in more crashes then young Ford owners
