    I wasn't there, but I understand your frustration. I hit another car at NHMS several years ago under similar circumstances--I have tried to talk with the driver a number of times and offerred apologies. It's the right thing to do, but I can understand that he never wants to talk to me. Hopefully the guy who hit you will step forward, but there's no way to make up for it.

    Wise of you to come forward and try to make amends. "Usually" goes a long way towards making up for an incident.

    So bear with me for a second...

    You find out who hit you - what changes?

    It "doesn't make any sense" but that applies to everything we do after sending in our entry fee. How does knowing make anything different?

    It changes nothing. I'd like to see the hit so I can see what happened. Maybe I think I was hit harder than I was. Autotechnic found someone with a video. The offending car was a yellow mustang. I am waiting to get a copy.

    +1 (or is it 2 now) for buying the wrecked car. I'm betting a good 6K of that is bodyshop labor.

    I would say that if you don't know whom the other party is by now, you will never know.

    Did you walk around and look at the other cars at the event after your incident?
    Obviously, it is too late now.

    I agree with Kirk, why does it matter now?

    cheers
