well it wasn't my boat. But it did happen racing.

THANK GOD the safety crew up at Watkins Glen puts out tons fo absorption material. I looped in the boot running about 70-80 and impacted the retainer wall adn impact material. I'm basically totally fine. Sore as hell, a few bruises, severly damaged ego and a really really sore wallet. Considering the wreck the damage isn't too bad. Totally fixxable. The way i spun/hit and the impact material A. prevented major structural damage to the car and B. let me walk away.

attached is a pic of me in the pits after taking crap from all my racing buddies.

it was more a funny pic. I wasn;t quaite as upset as teh pic makes out to believe. I was pissed about the $ thpart but ghlad to come out unscathed. We all figured this will be one of those pics we all laugh about next year.

loading my "parts" for the haul home

i probably hit the impact absorption foam at around 50. and damn does that **** work! Its screwwed up but considering that i basically sideswiped a wall going 50 its dawn near showroom....

once again watkins crew ( i know you aren't members here but still) thanks I owe you guys one!!!!

Hey Puder, can you spell EXPENSIVE??? Sorry, couldn't resist!

Nice clean crash. I've been doing the Glen for years with PCA. I've seen some pretty good crashes out there. I lost it once coming out of the heel of the boot. Got lucky and just missed doing major damage. Sure makes you rethink things after visiting the wall, doesn't it? Oh well, wanna play... gotta pay!

BTW, your car is a very easy fix. Your lucky it hit so flush on the side. Once you starting hitting things at an angle **** gets damaged quickly.

So, was that your daily driver? THAT would REALLY suck.

Puder, is Watkin's Glen a road racing course? Are you part of a 'league' or just out on occassion for a little impromptu racing? Sounds cool as hell.

The glen is a race cource that holds a number of events all year.
