That was a short day out at O park , paid to get in , went to park up and touched the sump on the rough tracks . Parked up and had a look under the car , worst sight you could see oil dripping at the rear . Just got home as the oil pressure went ( 26mls ) . hope its not done any damage Graham

Graham, sorry to hear about the incident with your sump hope it's ok. Looked like it would have been a good day's racing aswell with the GT cars,i would have come along if i hadn't been in work. I'm thinking of going to Donnington next sunday for the classic car racing if you fancy it .

Oh no, sorry to hear that mate. I know how you feel I ran over a brick on a carriage way 3 days before a trackday once and done this Hopefully like me there won't be to much damage, or cost involved for you

Bit of a bugger mate! mine seems to have an extra thickness of ally welded on the bottom although whether it would do any good is another matter. Hope the motor's ok
