The damage does not look as bad as I thought it would, but I am sure it's still hella expensive to repair.

Eventually you'll go off the track if you're trying to be a better driver - it is all part of learning. Just sucks it happened to this guy in a R8. Shit happens.

On another note, it is good to see the condos look almost complete on the South Course
