Well, after a top day at Rockingham without incident (apart from the EVO8 going straight into the concrete wall), I was putting my car back on the
trailer and caught the other side:

Sounds like it's time to attack the trailer ramps with Mr Angry Grinder!
At least you've got a matching set now...

Yeah - EVO8 was a right off. Front wheel clean off and engine was smoking when I went past.
Yep - forgot to raise trailer as it was fine whilst taking the car off (weighted).

Yep - but being on a real track is a whole new ball game!
You can go over the rumble strips and pretend your a race car driver.

Have you considered painting the side panels? At least you could then patch the holes and slap some filler over it.
Absolutely gutting though, I would be quite upset if I'd done that

I did that Pat after a trackday at Llandow. I'd lowered the rear legs of the trailer so we could use it as a viewing platform but forgot to
raise them before loading the car. We took a chunk out of the bottom edge of the side panel but managed to repair it with some gel-coat. You'd
never know it had been there.
