Default Yellow GT3 MSR Today

Anyone know who was driving a yellow GT3 Street at MSR Cresson today? We were there to pick up a car and pulled up just after it was in a major off. Just wanted to make sure there driver was ok. Car didnt have any numbers on it just a RUF sticker across the windshield.

Hope everyone was ok

Anyone know what happened? Was it mechanical? Looks like something happened right after Richochet, but it wasn't clear what...

Glad everyone is ok!

Most of that cage is/was from BMW Motorsport.

Hope the driver is ok as was posted, that looked bad.

My compliments to your work, everything did its job.

Driver dropped 2 wheels before turn-in for Ricochet. They were running the 3.1 so I would guess triple digit speeds when this happened.
