I track a 944 and laugh at guys tooling around in more expensive equipment who loose 5 seconds a lap after the first guy comes in on a flatbed after being buried in a tire wall. My investment is $8K total including upgrades such as a cage. I leave my 996 at home where its covered by insurance as long as it stays off…

It actually happened between turn 6 and 7 - before the hump at turn 7. Our people at both 6 and 7 said that he turned into the slight right hand bend after turn 6 where there is a slight rise and then a small flat area after turn 6 and this is where his car started to get light and then they saw the whole front end…

That's correct: but the shit happens mode of oil on the course or a catastrophic failure such as brakes or a half shaft failure at the wrong spot even if going at 8/10's can have a horrible outcome. Thankfully we have more tire walls, paved run offs and less armco then back in the day and our emergency crews who's…

My God... Better to be lucky then good huh? I'm blown away by the helicopter for a broken leg. The track I work at - CTMP (nee Mosport) you'd be transported by road for a broken leg. We reserve the helo's for head injuries or severe trauma.

We have forgotten how dangerous racing was back in the day and many vintage class racers must think it had something to do with the water or air or something. It was the cars. The cars for the most part haven't changed except... the old tire compounds they used in the 50's are long gone and in fact even though the…

928's? Yeah your right on the DIY aspect. The finishing order (or cars with least issues) in this order: Mustang, Porsche and Lotus. The Lotus will just fall apart and overheat - actually both at the same time. The Porsche will be great until the rear-end fails and or a rock goes through the sump. The Mustang will…

In a country where you could get your head cut off or put up against a wall and machine gunned - I don't think a picture on a pack is much of a scary deal frankly.

It was one of his rare failures.

Former tail# G-PRIX Ser#414A0049 is now US registered and based out of Cumming GA - registration still current - last flight was Aug 21st 2014 - current owner MDTD LLC. (lawyers I think)

One of my shots of the 919 from Le Mans this year.

We have the 3.6 ver of the Coupe and has been the best car we have ever owned. Pretty much the same options as the V without the extra power - which is quite useless in winter even with snow tires.

Sofia say, 'Porsche GT3RS 4.0 - It's almost as bad me...'

On the inside of the rim.

I'm thinking that it would be extremely bad timing for some driver to cut this guy off while he was this worked up over a *game*. Can you picture the reaction he would have to damage to his car... Yikes.

80's Madness - and not talking about hair styles or the music...

There are hours of this stuff on YouTube. In the 80's at the height of the Group B rally car era the speeds these cars were doing on rally stages was getting getting near F1 speeds on public roads and there were more then a few reports of blood, tissue and yes, body parts found on the wings of the cars when they…

I have 200 cell cats so I guess I would be in jail over there. ;)

Nice. The new owner also has a CLK GTR, F-40, 959, CGT, F-60, GTO, etc, etc. He collects super cars the way we collect stamps!

No - the silver one is the one I was talking about - WP0ZZZ99ZWS396005 it changed hands last year at the RM Auctions event at Monterey. As far as I know its still in the USA. There are several other GT1 EVO's in the US but they are race models - although having said that... it is possible that some have been…

The down side to owning a muscle car, (or any fast car) is that the Swiss are completely anal when it comes to speed limits. The up side is that your only a few hours away from Germany.
