Not too mention a run off into that rocky sand will eat your car up pretty good.(I know it'll chew up a motorcycle pretty good) Too bad insurance doesn't cover it.

If you go in to deep into 3 you can hurt the car pretty good in the dirt/ rocks or hit the wall on the drivers side at 4..... You could also go off in 8 and hook a tire that will flip you or you could silde all the way to the hay bales they recently added near the ditch off turn 8 as well....

Don't ask me how I know about the hale bales... I've tried to forget about them too many times to count....

WSIR is a scary fast course and things happen very quickly there due to the high speeds carried thru most of the turns.....
