Angry I Broke My Cobra

Well, it finally happened. Last practice session at NERC and I put my car into the tire barrier at the entrance to turn 6, the bowl. Sh#t!!!!!!

Wiped out the lower control arm, shock,and bent the hell out of the 3/4" squares on the front. Body damage is headlight, right front nose and fender cracks. Some internal aluminum deformation. I don't know if I hurt the motor yet.

On an up note, I'm okay and during practice laps I was running 1:23's and 1:24's. That would have been good enough for a third place in SP class small block. Oh well.

Hey Cranky, you had better watch your butt. Don bought a set of slicks and is gonna be lookin for you. He got a kick out of the mirror decal you made me. You will have to ask him who the plumber was that created his exhaust system.

I did determine that I need suspension work in a very bad way.
