very entertaining! Way cool. The cars spend more time in the air than on the ground.

hilarious. I love the "billiards" scene off T2 at TWS. The one Miata's snap over-steer recovery only serves to punt the other car off the track

Nice little pileup in T2 at Portland as well. These things just seem to be involved in more accidents... the only cars that seem to go off as frequently as they do are the local RX-7 racers. Those things love to swap ends.

Makes me think my first year wasn't so bad afterall. (Waiting for body shop estimate on repairs to all four corners.)

That's the Glen right? Speed WC just had a wreck exactly like that. I think James Clay was the lucky one into the tire wall first.
