hogpen feels so good when you get it right, but it feels so wrong if you're off by just the slightest bit. i'm sorry to see such carnage... btw, which shop in charlottesville did you take it to?

and this is why i packed up and didn't drive that sunday at vir a month or two ago...
sorry to see the carnage, best of luck. did you not pit after going off?

i'm telling you, you should have been in the car. no matter how slow i went through every corner i'd drift like it was my job. i'm amazed the car is in one piece after those two slow laps.
- .RJ - 10-24-2005
so, what you're saying is that you cant drive
- Mike - 10-24-2005
that goes without saying.

Main Street Auto Body? The guy seems decent, saved me some cash on parts and is cutting me a little bit on labor. Any experiences with them?

Well I went off at 1 and intended to pit at the end of that lap. I just didn't make it quite that far. Like you were saying about your experience, no matter how slow I seemed to go into turns, I was drifting around like a drunk Cuban. The estimate is around $5500. Life goes on.

You may want to ask around on the CAV forum. <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.cavcars.com">http://www.cavcars.com</a><!-- m -->.

Good luck with the repairs. Hopefully they won't find anymore damage once they strip it down.
