I'm a little sore but OK. Pretty sure the Armco at the track is fine. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Incredibly Mary wasn't phased at all. She saw the whole thing from pit lane and thought it was spectacular. Wish I could say the same.

Lucky no one else became involved or it would have been a mess, as the car did a 360 on the track after impact, then slid about 500 ft before stopping on the other side of the road. I actually never stopped trying to maintain some level of control.

The car will be in hospital for a while. Buckled the rear trunk floor & broke the transmission bellhousing among other things. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif)

Pictures to follow soon.

Someone who was following me got it on video, can't wait to see it.

A slow as dirt, clueless Mini driver squeezed me off the track. We had a 20+mph speed differential & he never saw me AFAIK. From what I heard the guy packed up and went home right afterwards. Probably scared the shit out of him.

I don't think he belonged on the track anyway. His qualifying time was 23 sec slower than mine, on a 1.5 mile track. 10 sec slower than the next car.

In only two laps I qualified 7th overall with a 1:04.6. Barely even warmed up the tires.
