amazing crash.

Why he grabbed another gear and didnt set up for the turn is beyond me.
The speed he carried into the barrier was awesome.

Who was the driver, seems he was way out of place for that corner. Overcooking it can be considered an understatement, driver just seems inexperienced in that car.

The driver's web presence seems to indicate he's been driving this car for a decent amount of time.

The comments on the facebook page seem to indicate they just recently put a sequential gearbox in the car. I call dibs!

pretty sure that will buff right out


but personally I feel the driver needs a kick right square in the ***....how dare he destroy that beauty...he should have been driving some sort of subaru or maybe a yugo or some other rice cooker on wheels

Update on their Facebook, "the car will be ready again in a few weeks"

Wow! I'd love to see that rebuild process documented ala a 9M thread.
