I agree, weather he knew the roads or not he should of slowed down on country lanes then Gav would still be with us.

Thing is, it's easy to say that now isn't it, who knows what speed he was going at, but that crash doesn't look like a 100mph crash to me, the car is not completely destroyed to where you can't make out what make it is.

Don't want to turn this memorial thread into a "nail the bastard" thread.
This thread is to remember Gav by, not point fingers at people.
Doesn't mean I disagree, but for the respect of Gav, PLEASE keep blame out of this thread!

Please let's just let the police do their thing when it comes to convicting the driver.
Let's keep this thread as a memorial for Gav

No. You won't be covered on track but you'll be doing this at a low speed and thus shouldn't crash, there is no legal requirement.

I went up yesterday to see Gav's grave and its covered in lots and and lots of flowers. His final resting place is so nice and peacefull, with some stunning views. I shall pop back today to see my final farewell. Spent majority of the day with most of his close friends, then went off to a house party. They have been some welcoming and friendly I was blown away.
So for now this is Leeroy siging out
