David, Ray's nickname is "Calamari Fritti" (LOL still gets tears in my eyes) The obvious reasons. So cool that he can laugh about it. Squid Daddy cleaned up most. He is already up for Sunday breakfast even without the bumper. Don Calamari must have been smoking because I lapped him twice in one session and we have the same engine  saluti Squid Meister | ||

Squid Daddy will kill me David! Don Calamari just overfilled his steering reservoir and dripped on the headers, hence was smoking like Ray without the flames Just great to see all smiling after both incidents. | ||

Senna in Monaco or MS in Indy. The moment you let go of that concentration, you're in for a spin. | ||

It actually looks worse than it was. Yes the scrapes go all along the car However that was just paint from the tire barrier. It came right off. Unfortunately the rear bumper is broken, but likely can be fixed properly and the two dents in the rear 1/4 panel can be taken out by the dent wizzard. Hit the barrier with 5-10Mph. Mind you he was on a cool-down lap! | ||

Ouch, Really sorry about that, Frank. To get that fixed you have to spent several dollars, I guess. Could have happened to me as well when coming off the track at the Nürburgring last September with my 348. Was just lucky that time. Just see it that way: You haven�t been hurt (I hope!) and it just seems to be some bend metall here... Con saluti cordialissimi and better luck next time, Jens Haller | ||

are those scrapes down the entire side or is just the rear corner sick? It's all fixable, better to drive em hard and take the risk than not drive them hard at all. How many Ferraris did Enzo wreck that are now 7 digit cars. | ||
