fucking ricer with the clear tails. karma. lol.

no seriously. i thought those smart cars drove themselves at the track.

anyone can go fast with a awd car.

that sucks to see. but im sure its not a total loss. as long as the front driveshaft pulled out of the tranny and didnt get pushed in.

ive never been to limerock. but the blue wall of gardrails scared me a time or two at the glen. specially coming out of the boot.

yeah, the red outer portion of the tail light seems to have broken off in the accident, you can still see the other tail is red.

its not too bad… but it would still probably be considered a total to an insurance company. it would make a nice rally donor.

The guy who wrecked was a really nice guy and a good driver.As the day progressed the temps started to drop and the tires and track got cool and slippery. You push the limits all day sliding the car around the turns and all it takes is a small mistake.I was waiting to go on the track in the next time trial group and saw this and a few other previous wrecks,that kinda psyched me out.  
Things happen very quickly at 90mph.The driver was exiting turn 9 going into the downhill and sudden snap oversteer swung him 180 degrees and hi went up on the grass and into the tire wall.  
Yes the car is repairable the strut broke below the mount and the axel snapped off the tranny, the rest is body work.  
AWD cars are definately more forgiving and easier to drive fast,but push hard enough and youll wreck any car. If I was driving a rear drive car I would have wrecked during the first session!

new bumpers, fender, door skins, lights…

seems like the only difficult body work should be the rear quarter panel, then paint.
