• my day of getting the racer home has been marred by unfortunate incident of carelessness. my partner, who brought the car down from london this morning has put a big scratch down the side of it reversing it off his trailer.

    gutted.

  • Fuuuuuuu!

  • ah fuck. i know it's always good to get the first little scratch in the paintwork to rid any unhealthy preciousness. but that's a bit much.

    gonna stay positive though as bet it is still lovely to have it home. and that will buff out

  • Shit that this has happened when you've spent so much time on building it and the damage didn't even happen when racing in anger. Still it can be repaired and maybe you can get someone to make it look less noticeable instead of going for paintwork before the season start. Still, the cars looking great and sits like a proper race B should.

  • Fuuuuck! That’s a savage scratch! So gutted for you mate!

    No quick fix for that seeing how deep it is either.... right through the number panel on the door too! 😫

    Gimme a shout if you want to borrow any of my Rupes polishers and compounds to try and take the edge off it and make it a little less obvious!

  • So, um, is the guy that did that also sharing the driving on track? I'd be super nervous. I do hope he's not a fan of the btcc. Maybe try and rub up against a sage green Aston in a race and it'll just cover the scratch up.
