I was going to stay out of this thread... but, what happened to clive could have to any driver. I have seen instructors hit walls and total cars as well. Accidents happen no matter which group you chose to drive in. It really isn't a matter of beginner vs. intermediate. Everyone should just be careful when on track, and remember these events ARE NOT RACES.
To Clive, I am glad you are ok, and am sorry about your car We all learn from mistakes but most importantly you are/will be healthy and fine

Glad to hear the driver is going to be OK. Just searching for positives, you can always replace a car, your health is a far different story.
