Oh, and here's the result.....



Although I don't really want to get into specifics here, I did the following:
  1. Rolled her three times
  2. Took a ride in the blood bus to Race Medical
  3. Passed my exam
  4. Rented a prepped SpecMiata (never driven one of them before) for $300
  5. Started the 5-lap sprint race dead last (that's 29th position--waaaaay back there)
  6. Finished 4th (1st in class)
  7. Collected a neato $5 trophy that almost makes up for the $20K hole in my wallet.


As if that wasn't crazy enough for you, I already have a replacement tub (car shell) in my posession and after having stripped it clean, I'm moving everything over from the silver car. I should be back on track in the next two months or so.

BTW--I'll mention this here as I do everywhere else...without Mitch Piper and his expertise I probably would not be walking/talking/typing today. His roll cage saved my life and it's the one thing that did not deform in the car.

Oh yeah--I have in-car video (that some of you have already seen) of the roll and have it in WMV and Real formats. Pick your poison below. You won't be disappointed!!!

You can view them at double-size w/ good clarity. Enjoy!

It hurt just to watch them and this is PG-13! No cuss words, only a little bit of violence.
