Spec Miata into EV at SPR Sunday...
#1
Only what I have heard: A car was into the tires at exit of T8. EV pulled out of crossover near T-3 I assume to recover car in T8, they pulled right in front of an SM. Don't know if flags were out but apparently there was confusion. SM made... contact with EV (Ford F250 or 350) and somehow truck was into tires and on top of concrete barrier. Not sure who was at fault and doesn't really matter, everyone was pretty much ok, minor bumps and bruises. They did RED Flag the race at that point. Car and truck were damaged from my distant view.

Miata - 1
F350 - 0

well I'm sure it matters to the folks running the track and the ones in the wreck!

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth

Thats cause it was you, wasnt it!

No but really, I hope they share the infromation to TrackDaze, NASA, etc to help improve safety of EV. As far as regular people like me, curiosity wants me to know, but theres no real nneeeed for me to know.

My friend Teddy was supposed to be there this weekend racing - I'll ask him about it when I see him.
Why do people just post what they are thinking? Without thinking.
