I was thinking the same thing a bad wreck it happens more than people think better not get caught not having track insurance. Could have been worse for the OP. Practice makes perfect and you can’t replace seat time it is what forms a driver.

:iagree: I have my time in the oh **** that is going to cost me $$$$. I ran off road and broke front endlink that resulted in blown front shock/strut and then on the infamous day last November when my motor went boom. Yep those were sad days at the track and my Z is still has no heart!!!:mad:

I will share some pics ASAP! Car will be back home in the next couple days, I have been doing nights 7-7 last two nights plus one more tonight which has thrown things off a little coordinating etc.

I will do my own look over and provide pics.

My motor/tranny are both probably done...….. and I am looking forward to the rebuild, in my sick twisted mind I am excited! Meanwhile close friends and family thought I'd be heart broke or super bummed etc. NOPE!!! Bigger and better here we come!

I was the same way in my youth. Blow a motor, build the next one bigger and faster. My Dart when from a 340, to 440, to a 440 based 572 ci monster. 4 motors in my TransAm. The last one was a LS7 454 Cbevy big block create motor.
