Message	I respect your racing experience, but not even you can say he was driving it AT its potential. The last two photos clearly illustrate the car AND driver were beyond their potential. Some might say well beyond. I have no problems with people taking their sports cars onto the track, in fact, just like you I encourage it. But gauging the extent of the damage, somebody didn't use proper judgment and demonstrated again, that knowing your limits is absolutely necessary when operating a car like that around other drivers. Which kind of returns us to my original statement :) _________________________________________________ A person only needs two tools. WD-40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move but should, use WD-40.
