not sure he had his camera on at the time.

no, gearbox went after the repairs had been done and he went back out!  Cause of crash would have just been because the track had been uber-greasy and was in that dangerous stage where a dry line has formed but it's still greasy as hell off line.

I can't wait to see the camera footage of that. Did it happen as a result of the gearbox breaking?

Nah, happened as a result of my bad driving! Hauling hard, and fair to say I was giving it ten tenths all day- which resulted in this:





And in sequence:







Gonna be abit of a rebuild!

Wow that's a real shame, but at least you are both ok. How did you manage to get those excellent action pics.
At least no one can say you were not trying.

I wonder if she was worried about you of if she was thinking about the cost/time in fixing it while snapping away.
