Does anyone know which way the car was heading in that pic. Towards the national speed limit or away? My bet is the driver was accelerating on the approach to the national speed limit road.
I feel really sorry for Gav's family and friends. I can't imagine what it must have felt like for them, to hear the sirens and helicopter and dread the worst has just happened to your mate.
Top marks for everyones support as a club guys. Its shows a lot of love and respect for someone who quite clearly will be missed.

No, the car had just come out of the national speed limit and into a 50 speed limit. He came round the bend at well over 100mph and the top speed you can take that bend is 85mph. The national speed limit stretch of road isn't very long either as the road is very narrow and full of bends leading towards Manorbier. Have a look on Google Maps and you will see.
Thoughts and sincere condolences to Gavin's family and friends.
Reading through this thread he seems like a thoroughly decent guy.
