Great pics! Are you sure the black stang spinning out was not you?? Did it hit the wall?
I'd would've been there but SVTOA now requires a roll bar in verts. I'm not going to weld or drill my car. Oh well.

Was that a Gallardo in those pics?

I love it when an owner of an exotic has the balls to actually take their car to a track and drive it the way it should be driven. Rare.

Yes but their balls quickly shrink as a low cost domestic car blows by them on the track!

Actually it was a transmission leak, that ruined his day.

Did this guy smack the wall?

Man I hate seeing that shit.....

 

[edz]

We had one damaged on the left side bumper, it poped the airbags, but he drove it home. Not sure if it was that one however.

 

[TTA89]

Was there a rollover too?

That was someone who did that on the drive home, he was a car show participant, not a track participant.

You're kidding me... How the hell do people roll cars on the street? :shrug:

The wife and I were coming back after a fuel run, and there he was upside down in the ditch at the entrance on Hwy 98, I wanted to stop and see how much he wanted for his rims and tires, but the wife thought it would be in poor taste.

I don't believe so...the black Cobra that hit the wall was a '96-98.

Although I can't blame him...I found it pretty funny that the guy with the new C6 ZO6 covered the entire front of his car with blue painter's tape...I mean the entire front, bumper cover, hood and front fenders. Again, you can't blame him for wanting to protect his paint...that car looks badass!

Looks like the guy got lost looking for the car show. :dw:

 

[spdfrkFL]

He also ran out of gas on track the last session on Sunday and had to be towed back in. :lol1:

LOL I was down to 1/4 tank of gas after my 2nd run. Good thing my brakes were done! I skipped out on the last run what a blast though!
