Crashed!
Hi all.
I've been a bit out of the scene lately due to... smash myself against track rails.
Actually I'm (and a friend that put an order with MNR!!!) are pretty satisfied with the chassis behavior - no distortion at all in the passenger
compartment (no rollcage, just the normal rollbar)
It was a +/- 60º front right hand hit, after loosing control of the rear (righ hand long very fast corner). Then the rear rotated and also hitted the
rails.
The first impression was the car looked quite nice, but after inspection, the front right chassis rails were very distorted. (right front suspension
was teared, both rear suspensions were danified)
The rails (ex formula 1 circuit - Estoril GP) were pretty damaged, as well as the car.
Thanks Chris / MNR for helping me put the car back in shape!
Feel safe (but not too much )
Joao

What a downer
Nice to hear that the car did it's job in protecting you and there were on serious injuries - wonder what your average tintop would look like in
similar circumstances.
Next time I bet you will ffed in a bit less power out of that particular (and most other) corner.
