The end of the Zcars mini at its last outing at Anglesey the driver was fine,testament to the safety and strength of the cars.

Ouch, stood up to it well by the looks of things though.
Some strange lines being taken at times there (not just when staying out of the way of others either)

Hi

Yep that stood up well. The strange lines are due to the short wheelbase and the twitchiness of the vehicle. Possibly what caused it to end up in that situation once is ventured back onto the tarmac. what was it that ran into it. A Ginetta or a TVR ?.

Cheers Matt

I was marshalling there on the day ......It was a TVR that ran into the Mini..... hard, but fortunately both the drivers were fine.

It was a relatively quiet weekend until the last two races on the Sunday. First the big Z cars Mini / TVR coming together. If you watch closely you can see the white Indy of Danny Keenan just manage to slip past the mini as it starts to lose control. (Incidentally Chris Maries was sooooo close to being clobbered by a wayward sierra in the same race)

Then in the last race of the day a couple of legends decided to try the same thing at the same place on the track just with a slightly different outcome.

Hope this link works
