Sebring this weekend

The car is done. Both Miike & myself were fine after the incident. Mike's car should be able to return after some straightening & body work. My car was bent/creased in roof and underbody. Mike felt really bad. It's all good with me as I have plenty of spares now & a complete car to go into F Production. I'll still be at the races handing out trophies, & will hopefully finish the new car within a year.

How did you get the lenzes yellow on your car?

Go to www.LAMIN-X.com -- I use the stuff on my headlights, I used the clear on taillights of my old crx but on my new Civic, I went with the light smoke stuff on the tails. Here's a couple of pics

This is one of my favorite pic...

Thank you to all who have expressed your concern. Thanks to Mike C for calling me. Tucker, thanks for being such a great competitor and taking this so forgivingly. It was completely my fault that we made such an impact. I had a great race going on and just went into T5 too hot and lost it. I didn't want to lose too many positions and tried to re-enter the track when I shouldn't have. I learned an expensive lesson and I'm sorry to have put some of that cost on you too.

I have been too busy to take the car off the trailer and check it out but I don't think it is worth trying to salvage the tub. I have another perfect body that I can strip down and transfer all the good stuff from my car onto it and start over. I just need to find the time to get it together. I had just spent $7 grand with Van Steenburg for a new motor and tranny and that motor was breaking in nicely. If anyone wants to make me an offer on all the pieces and parts and do the work to put it all together, they can make a nice deal on a complete package with a brand new ISC Race motor.
 
Mike, I had a terrible start and was right behind Tucker. I'm glad to see that you and Tucker are O.K. It was one of the hardest hits If seen. I think if the grass wasn't so wet you might of made it. When we came around the corner your tires were flinging mud everywhere and you weren't going anywhere. It's a lesson learned for all of us that when it's been raining do not expect to be able to drive through the grass as easily as when it's dry. Sounds obvious, just one more thing to plug-in to your brain before the race. Good Luck. Neil
