Wouldn't do much, sand traps are designed to slow cars as quickly as possible, not damage them. Shy of ripping poorly attached front bars off, all thats needed is a good clean.

Yeah it was certainly a spectacle, I've got a couple of videos that I'll post up soon too.

The rest of the pics are up here:

Was rather happy to see that it is actually on the track.
Pity that the driver lost it at that corner, but live and learn

He just braked too late by the looks of things.. I'd say he was pushing the limits of the car, I know I would if I was that loaded!

Just noticed by the picks that he went and had another crack after ditching it.

Try, try, and try again. Awesome.

Yeah he pulled it out, dusted it off and went straight back out there. Was also kind enough to let us watch from his balcony in the top of McCrackan house, take as many photos as we wanted and help him push it back onto it's trailer, top bloke!

Heres a quick video, sorry about the shakes, I'm not much of a videographer!

Good to see it being driven as intended - look like he's having a crack through the esses too. Lap time?
