Track Day (Video Up Now)...I knew this day was coming!!!
the pictures speak for themselves....basically i went in too hot on the approach to the carousel (turn 6) @ Sears Point...i began the slide @ around 90mph and never ever hit the brakes as i was always trying to recover the slide...i would estimate the impact of the dirt embankment @ around 50-60mph...and this is the result...thankfully we didn't flip over!!!
My in car video will be up this week @ LICmotorsports.com & Subydude.com
P.S. my co-driver during that session was Subydude (joseph) and we both walked away unhurt.....thanks go out to everybody who was there...your support was greatly appreciated!!!
P.S.S and thanks got out to Adam from Petaluma for sporting his AAA membership to tow my car to LICmotorsports!

Ouch! All part of the learning process, I guess. Sorry it had to be such an expensive lesson. Glad to hear that you and the passenger are both okay though. How long will it take to repair something like this?

my buddy Zane also had a rough day with his brand new R32....only 3000 miles and ironically he had just passed his NASA driver instructor training course the session before....

that's the most fun i've had on the track
thanks rs turbo... for slamming us on the side of the mountain... if hill wasn't so steep i think we could have done a real # on your roof... oh well... there's always a next time.
what's funny is he's already signed up for the next two events!
anyone want a ride?!
video should be up soon.
