I was drooling over this car all day Saturday. I left just before this happened. The car was riding out on the test hits I saw.

Glad your ok and I hope everything works out and you can get it back together soon!

Sucks to see this happen, but glad you are just a little sore and nothing worse. One of my favorite cars. Read about it on chitown but its even worse after seeing the video.

That really sucks! Another congrats for you being ok though! Knowing your reputation, you will have it back together or another car together in fine fashion.

Glad you are OK Andy, but we will miss you in KY I gave up watching the race online ad midnight. I have no idea WTF all those street cars were running for, and that grudge thing was a complete waste of time too. Maybe they could have finished the event without that crap before the track got damp.

I was there on sat. the car was definitely riding! one of my favorite cars there. it sucked to see you crash but like everyone else has already stated atleast you are "ok". this just means when you come back the car can/will be faster!
