    Own driver error I can somewhat live with but when taken out... that just sucks.

    It's all relative about the track though. For the N.E., Lime Rock, Thompson, NHMS... I feel safer racing at the Glen personally.

    Sorry to hear Kirk. Couple turns I always used to think about what would happen if my own hub failed...bummer.

    Greg - I think the video quality is just fine. Good stuff and thanks for sharing!

    i respect Kirk decision that the bad ju-ju he has experienced at the Glen makes him not want to return, but honestly it was no the guard rail that got him, he got driven into to a tire wall. the only thing better is lots of grass. it was interesting talking to Kevin Fandozzi however, this was his first race at the glen and he said the data showed loads higher than he has ever seen in his Cobalt. i suppose tha could lead to such failures as the meotter had.

    Take another look at the Sunday "Rear view" vid.

    In the 32-33 minute range you will see a simply incredible save by a B-Spec Mini (Washay's car) going into the Boot as a result of a small punt.

    DAMNED good save; that was a big potential wall-banger.

    Sunday In-Car is up...I had built a manageable lead over Farbman at that point and was pissed at the FCY, but boy was I wrong...that was some fun racing.

    I really wish I knew someone that could combine these two into one PiP...
