Scary, very scary!
The important thing is that both of you are okay- thats really all that matters but it sure breaks my heart to see that grouse little car in that state.
Given what you have achieved to date I'm sure you'll have in back stronger than ever in no time.
Good luck.
Cheers

Thanks guys
Been hard looking at her in my shed every night
Had a visit from a Motorsport official to check over car ,gave the cage the OK
He also reckons its most likely was a tie rod that's broke sending me into a bottle type roll and that I didn't have big enough bolts holding my bigger battery thats broke causing fire also need decent fuel cell

Holy shit man!
Thats fucking nasty!
Bloody glad you're okay.
I agree that's fixable. I have a spare roof. It's cancerous just above the drip rails, (Quite bad) but the center part is okay if you wanted to replace that part rather than try make your flat again?
I think I have a rear window too. Freight would be a challange though?

Getting rid of the rotary are you?
Did you get that 1200 in the previous pictures? Seems like a good replacement for the wrecked one.
