yes, it was at FATT....

driver said he was attempting a pass on bridge straight, other person did not let up, finished pass WAY late, offline to right, tried to get online and rear got light coming over the crest. came down, caused spin, was attempting and succeeding in controlling when he ran out of room and went into the inside wall backwards on passenger side.

both he and instructor were unhurt except for a bruised arm (instructor) and ego (driver).

easily visible damage was halfshaft torn out of diff and busted right rear brake rotor, banged in passenger door and rear quarter.

when talking with him he knew the board, but cannot remember if he told me his screen name or not. i gave him mine as well as home contact info, mentioned he might get on board and talk to skip about some potential same insurance claim fixes. believe he lives in arlington or maybe alexandria.... one of them A-towns...

Keith, I wonder if it's the same Suzuka that we saw during your FOW event. Maybe he was scoping out the track that day.
