Well things didn't go as planned today my Dad got a little over aggressive trying to chase down a Porsche. Those of you that know thunder hill it happened in turn 11, he got in the throttle a little early before the suspension has a chance to settle from the hill & the wheels broke free doing about 70 mph. He hit the tire barrier 2 times and the car actually got off tIhe ground. He's prett lucky, he's not even sore. The car is a total loss but it's all good because we have track insurance & insured for 2X it's worth. Here is a pick of before & after.
my little 331 built by Turbo50, man this little bitch was running hard. Passing 80K Porche's in a mustang is a great felling
Boom bang pow
So Im in the market for a for a notch or hatchback running or non ASAP , let me know what you have.

Yeah man she was spinning the wheels at the end of 3rd. Wish I had more traction in the back. I'll post up the GoPro rollbar mounted video as soon as i get back in town. It was a pretty violent crash, very lucky he didn't get hurt. In the same corner in HPDE3 a 2010 Mustang crashed, flipped & caught on fire. The passenger the father was air lifted to a local hospital, the son was drivIng. I guess they had about 70K in that car. I seen at least 7 totaled cars today. It was hot & slippery.

The tire marks on the side of the car are crazy looking.

Damn Jay...when I got your text with that picture I was like ![[Eek!]](eek.gif) ! I'm VERY glad pops is ok though. Was the suspension and motor damaged or is it all body damage? Maybe you can just piece it back together?
