[QUOTE=thehowlfactor;808436]Is there a point where the race officials would of called the racing off or is it a drivers decision?[/QUOTE

I believe Murray said to last 10 or so competitors it was up to us to run or not and there was a briefing before the last 10 went out.It was postponed once nick had his incident and Jamie and I didnt get to run until the Arvo session started.I was in the car at the time waiting to go out.

Correct. It was my decision to go back out. When I went out there was some standing water here and there on the track which was easy enough to spot. I had already driven over that part of the track at the start of my run. Jurgen told me as I went to the back half of the track the rain came down hard on the front of the track and vision wasn't the best when I came back on to it.

I think this is a timely reminder to us all about the perils of motorsport...especially in the wet. The RAC track is definitely not a good surface in the wet and becomes perilous when the rain comes down hard.
I remember QTW last year when we had similar conditions...it was tip toe stuff...we went off near the end of the main straight after hitting standing water and aquaplaning...just lucky there were no barriers down there.

All the best Nick...make sure you get your injuries well looked after...the car is just a bit of metal and less important than you....
