Sandown 500 12.9.14 Friday Post 6.0

Well another round done and dusted, great weather, great teams. Support Categories were great for this V8 round with Porsche Carrera Cup, Touring Car Masters, Australian GT and V8 Utes. Friday I was on Flag Point 6.0 Drivers Right looking down to 9.0 Dandy CNR so a good point to see all the action at 9.0. Two flaggies Me and Colleen and a Sector Marshall Friday was mainly practice with Touring Car Masters and Aust GT having Qualifying rounds as well.
Plenty of cars going wide through 7 and 8 we had two big smashes between our point and 9.0 in the V8 utes we had one lose control going through 7 spinning and hitting Armco fence facing WD stopping just before gravel trap at Dandy cnr bring out red flag and the end of Practice for them. Last event of the day Aust GT Qualifying a very similar accident but a lot faster we had the Mclaren spin off hitting Armco and ripping off front wheels and going all the way through the gravel trap at 9.0 into tyre wall WOW awesome but no more Mclaren for w/end both drivers ok cars not so good.
