I made a similar mistake on that track the day before in an attempt to get going as fast as possible...except I only ended spinning the Lotus 180 and all was good. I'm so glad to hear the coupe will be back to new soon - hope to see ya out on the track next year! -Kristin (aka 'GreaseGirl') Rob-

Went into turn one way too hot and slid it off into the very rough dirt. That's what broke the suspension, which is a good thing since it took the abuse and didn't bend the frame. It looks way worse than it actually is. RK The suspension didn’t fail, it was pure driver (me) error. Went into turn one way too hot and slid it off into the very rough dirt.
