After what was a brilliant weekend in chimay unfortunately jims f1 seddenly started to slide pretty violently and started smoking.within seconds the outfit was ablaze.scott and mick soon found a Marshall but instead of having a fire extinguisher they thought it would be better to carry on filming the outfit burning and taking pictures.....yes really...... as no extinguishers were present the outfit suffered horrendous damage which we don't know if any is salvageable yet......now jims chasing up some compensation with the fim but could take an age so if anyone can do anything at all to help the team we would all be very grateful. ...already some people have offered a spare fairing etc and gentle jim is overwhelmed with all the support as all involved are....such a shame as both mick fairhurst and stand in driver scott were super quick.. I'll update the news soon as we hear anything.....many thanks
