i spoke to the guy that is towing/repairing his car back to Dallas and he believes it could be fixed for around 30k. His words not mine.

met the owner a couple times this past weekend and he is a real nice guy.

I know you meant well. The owner will have a lot on their hands to deal with the incident and the last thing they need is more public info about the details of the incident posted for the various entities who will be involved in resolving.

It was the first event for my gt4 and it was a blast.

Matt
Agree on Josh's tire wear.. crazy! In a fast driving, wallet emptying way.

Yes, he is.

Sub 2:30 on street tires in something like only his sixth track day means he is either more talented than I am, or more nuts.

I choose to go with more nuts...

I was there in my yellow GT4. I was "breaking it in" on Sunday. On Saturday I rented this car:

The second lap was my best...2:19. This is another instance where I paid money to scare myself

Signed up with EA for Oct. Have been to COTA a few times but will be first time with the GT4.

I see the BMWCCA Trifecta Nov 11-13 is on Motorsportreg now with sign up starting 9/13. Chin is at TWS that weekend too.
