Sorry to hear about this Sean, but glad to hear you're okay. I know it doesn't help, but from one racer to another, I've seen plenty of wrecks both on and off the track. The car can be replaced/fixed. The driver is a different story.
I hope better things are in the mix for you soon, as you definately need a winning lottery ticket or something. I'll buy the
if you visit Florida sometime!

Hi Kamil, good to see you found us here on LS1tech. Thank you and your friends again who all stopped to see that I was allright, it was appreciated. I was there a couple hours in all, kinda sucked in the cold and rain.
I'm attatching some pics I took tonite of the primary damage.
Thanks everyone for the compliments on the car and the sympathy(for lack of a better word).
Right now I'm trying to find a way to get the car to Hacker Joe ASAP so he can get to work on it. everything is settled with insurance, etc just need the car there, Timmy came and got me last nite but he's out of town now and took the trailer with him.
Can anyone with a trailer possibly help me out? I'm in Glenview/Northbrook and I need to get the car about 30 minutes away to Westmont..please let me know if you can assist. Cursed1 can tow if there is a trailer in the area but no tow vehicle.

thanks everyone. Andy I really appreciate the offer man, very cool of you. But shortly after I made that post BigD hit me up and said he'd be glad to help whenever I need. Pending confirming a time with Hacker Joe tomorrow, the car should be at his shop tomorrow nite.
Damnit I REALLY hate the car not being home, not looking foward to it. I get kinda nutty about it. Ask Joe from when he painted it the first time haha. I drove down and visited like once a week.

well car is at Hacker Joe's as of tonite. Big D came and picked picked me and the car up and we took her there. HUGE THANKS to Darrin, he wouldn't even take my money for gas which means I'm going to get him drunk at the track first chance I get. Darrin has got to be one of the nicest cats around man.
I'm not going to make RSD I don't think, I believe we have other plans at this point given we have no car to bring now but I dunno.
