    The passenger of the car was actually the instructor. His name is Matt Griffin and he normally races the Vauxhall Monaro. He instructs all over the country and is often seen at Goodwood.
    Matt is presently in hospital suffering from a severely broken left ankle, punctured lung, 4 broken ribs and swelling to the brain.
    It was a horrendous accident and does not warrant further explanation in respect for the deceased relatives. The son of the deceased driver was actually in the car behind.
    I have just set up a forum on Matts web site if any of you would like to leave a get well message. I know it will do him the power of good.
    Thank you all for your concern

    Other than an accident at the 2000 Challenge Finale in Mugello....This is the only other one Ive ever heard of. Mind you I dont want to start talking about crashes and deaths....but Im personally only interested in how we can make racing and racing in 360s safer.
