Rylan, can't recall his name, but I pitted next to him, chatted all day.

This was a Trackmasters Racing event, last session of the day.

Both ends of the car took impacts from the wall.
He went to the hospital but was ok...
If he's on the board (still), maybe he'll chime in.

Mike

Yeah, looks like he drove close to the wall (he may not have actually hit it -- note the absence of damage to the right side of his car in the "after" picture), panicked, jerked the wheel away from the wall, lost the back end, and went partially around.

After something like that I would hope it's totalled. I'd hate for them to try and piece that back together and be stuck driving it.
