You see those crash videos from time ti time on youtube, streetfighter, and the like, but never did I think I’d have one of my own up on the Internet. Turns out another driver, and a good friend of mine, James Elterman was video taping my Unlimited Time Attack session. You can see just what happens, I come flying into the bowl WAY to fast, and it simply launches me out of it, and into the wall. Its a little scary to see the video, and seeing just how sloppy my driving was. I can think of a thousand things I could do better, but we all know that hind sight is 20-20.
In better news the team and I will be looking forward to getting the car back this week. We have a whole slew of parts on order and we are still trying to make the VIR deadline. I’ve also been invited to help The Redline Time Attack Crew Work the New Jersey Motorsports Park event. So I’ll be up there for that, although not driving a car.
Without further ado the video!
