Alright mate, welcome back! Bet you were well gutted about the fire, what caused it?
What's the new saxo like, much rust?

Cheers yes mate so gutted littrally spent so much on that car and to watch it all burn on the track infront of thousands at french car show was quite crap lol. worse thing is my mates found the video on youtube months later and tagged me in it lol. Sadly just before i went to the show my gearbox blew up so had a garage put a new one in. sadly they put the gaskets in wrong and on the track it blew a gasket and dropped gearbox oil all over a stainless steel exhaust. Sadly couldnt shout at them due to it been a fireball on a track not road couldnt even claim had to take the hit. I moved away from saxos and recentlystarted missing my old one so much so here goes again round 2. So far rust free wont be long tho haha.

That is some seriously bad luck! Is it just guesswork though about the gaskets being put in wrong?
Proper nightmare having your car written off on track without trackday insurance. Did you then have to pay any costs for getting it remove/damage to the track?
