Think somebody on behalf of the Forum should enquire from Brands. I know the Press Office so lets see what happens. It's a matter for for Brands and the police, no need for the forum to get involved with something that has nothing to do with us. Brands said they were only releasing their statement to media who enquired. As it's a good post, just curious to know the outcome. But we know now as he's been arrested. I never intended the Forum to get involved, so apologies if I gave that impression. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

He's been arrested..YES... :yahoo: POLICE have arrested a 21-year-old Tonbridge man in connection with an incident at Brands Hatch over the weekend. A group of youths gatecrashed a high-speed race taking place at the racing track driving a Volkswagen Polo onto the course. A video filmed by a back seat passenger was uploaded on YouTube and has attracted widespread criticism online. The video, uploaded to YouTube with the title ‘Idiotic teenagers make fools of themselves at Brands Hatch’ on Saturday, shows a Volkswagen Polo driver entering the famous racecourse as cars speed past. Filmed by a backseat passenger, the male driver laughs as his female front seat passenger, and seemingly the owner of the car, screams in terror. And this morning, a new video has emerged which shows how the Polo entered the racecourse as race competitors in VW Beetles sped past the gatecrasher. The competition, organised by Borough Green-based British Racing & Sports Car Club, was brought to a halt by a red flag with around twenty minutes left of the four-hour race. The BRSCC's Twitter feed indicates the race was neutralised on safety grounds as the cars were led to the pit stop before they re-grided and the race was restarted. A spokesman for Kent Police said: “On Sunday (June 15) Kent Police was made aware of a report of possible offences committed at Brands Hatch race track in West Kingsdown.

You know how much they are new..!!

I don't think soooo...!! Where is the promotional value in it, all its got so far is negative press..!!! :scare:

Is that him. ?

Welcome to The Land of Zed. . Nice Zed , needs a "stubby"

Its now on Sky News... Why give the idiot such publicity...six months yes..publicity NO..

Not really ..There are two missing...

One of your East London mates Bradders...

Not really...But thanks for the offer..

Check this, http://scontent-b-lhr.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xfp1/t1.0-9/10436356_292799254226803_5895730382408932617_n.jpg

Dont think sooo. A lot of people are upset about it.. . Also caused a Red Flag with 20 mins of the race to run. :scare:

Be nice to see some Zeds following their trip to Le Mans before you clean them..

Don't think we will hear anything else official for a while. The location of Schumacher's rehabilitation is being kept secret to respect his privacy, and it is not expected that there will be any further updates about his exact condition imminently.

Electric racing: should it be at Le Mans? All that development and prep work for 23 minutes of racing...is it worth it? The Nissan ZEOD is currently listed as off at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, which is sort of funny considering the timing in which it occurred. Television coverage showed the car pulling off short of 24 minutes… One can only think about what this failure means to the bigger picture of (almost) all-electric racing.* To me it’s a metaphor for the whole hybrid, power unit, battery powered, electric movement. The car didn’t make it 24 minutes let alone 24 hours. When the FIA came down with these regulations, rumor has it both Audi and Porsche had serious issues developing their cars…at the cost of completely destroying a chassis each. And that is just Hybrid technology, which has been in road cars for years. The first few races of the season have been rather successful for the hybrid systems however, but one can only guess they are running super conservatively early on. Formula One is in a weird place right now with its silenced Hybrid cars coupled with the regulations creating phallic noses on the cars… Then there is the fully electric movement, which is primarily represented by the Nissan ZEOD taking up Garage 56…an entry into today’s 24 Hours of Le Mans reserved for a team with technology under development, and Formula E. We have seen how the race worked for the ZEOD. After a week of testing, and weeks during its initial development, it managed to almost hit the 24-minute mark. This brings me to the last big electric venture of 2014…Formula E. Having spoken with Alejandro Agag earlier this year, I know the series plans on doing a complete dress rehearsal before they run an official event. This seems like a good idea. Despite this, I think the first season will see incredibly high reliability issues, and races full of attrition. Just finishing will be key. I suppose this is all supposed to be for the betterment of technology of our roads, but does it really take lackluster performances in some of the biggest races on the planet to develop this technology? What if the ZEOD had taken out another car? I think I will stick to my petrol engines for now. In fact I bought myself a 66cc two-stroke engine to strap to something fun…but that’s for another story. To be able to ensure momentum to be able to charge its batteries, the ZEOD has a small light petrol engine on board.

Schumacher out of Hospital Michael Schumacher has been moved to a special rehabilitation unit at the hospital in Grenoble, according to the German weekly newsmagazine Bunte. Last week, a private German rehabilitation clinic in Allensbach denied reports that it was already treating the seven time world champion. The DPA news agency said 45-year-old Schumacher, who has been in a coma since a skiing fall in late December, is still at the Grenoble hospital. But Bunte is reporting in its latest issue that, even though the former Ferrari and Mercedes driver's chances of recovery are now small, Schumacher is now being prepared for rehabilitation. He has reportedly already been discharged from the neurological care unit at the Grenoble University hospital, and transferred to a unit specialising in rehabilitation treatment. Citing clinical sources, Bunte added that Schumacher's next phase of treatment will prepare him for transferral to a specialist rehabilitation clinic.

Brilliant news. Lets hope its true,

Lots of choice out there. BMW if you servicing is also paid for as not cheap on servicing.

Yep' Discs look good and Mintex are a quality product.

Happy Birthday Boys. Have a good one.
