so glad he is ok....hope you heal up quick Pete !

 

Glad you're alright!

 

great to hear you are alright!

car can be replaced, but a life cannot.

+1 on investing money on safety equipment FIRST before start modifying the car.

 

Glad to hear that you are okay!!!

 

Glad to hear he is ok. Be safe guys.

 

Wow, what a horrible shame! Glad to hear you're OK though, Pete.

 

Hey Folks! Thanks so much for the kind comments. I am alive and kicking! No worries, just a bruised arm from the airbag deploy. Cause remains up for discussion and while some ideas, more examination needs to be done. There may have been a mechanical failure. Or not.

Now that I am home and car is here too, we think it is repairable. Unless the frame machine shows the tub is tweaked, and there is no evidence of that, then the "Track Rat" is coming back stronger and better than ever.

The worst thing was seeing and knowing all my run group mates were back on track and I was fooked for both run days. Can't wait to get the hammer down and will go to back-up plan and use Mr Spyder for my Laguna Seca sessions this Monday and Tuesday. I JUST found and mounted Michelin Pilot Sport Cups on him so he is fully capable of track duty. Whew!

Look, we all know that certain risks must be accepted for certain pursuits. Those of us that love to seek the limits will sometimes get bit in the pursuit. While I consider myself a safe and competent driver, sometimes things happen. And they certainly did two days ago (green guy was Fate)

 

i read this on rennlist, sad for the metal while glad for his safety, 11 trackdays in 2 to 3 months wat a sport, hope to se u back in an rs as soon as posible

 

Glad you're okay. +1, best advice.

 

Is it too morbid to ask for pics?
