Cause she certainly didn't go that fast on the main circuit!

Let me clarify. I don't really care "who" wrecked. I only care about "how" the wrecks occurred. Did these happen in T9? The red one looks like it went broadside into a wall. The black one looks like it went head first. Curious.

The black one was "launched" over a wall at the JC. The hear the story was awful in itself.

The red one, IIRC, was T3.

What do you mean by JC?

T3 inside or outside wall? Broadside hit is weird, particularly for a Boxster.

That pic was from 6/04, I thought that was at SP, but I can't remember that long ago. A guy and his wife were sharing the car.

Don't recall the details...Pete K discussed it and showed the photo. But, IIRC, it was a warmup lap in red or black. Guy was doing the " NASCAR weave" to warm tires...so not exactly a typical accident.

A good picture for this would be jazzbass crashing the scooter. Maybe a video. That was awesome. Scooter sits with a dead rear tire. Did its time well. Do any of you guys want it for a pit scooter?
