Answer to the "why" ?'s...

This is why we are so picky about safety and tech for running on the track. The incident on Sunday at HPR...

Both drivers are OK fortunately, thanks to good safety equipment and luck.

What happened there? Did something on the car break causing him to veer off into the wall?

Over the work radio, we were under the impression that his brakes locked up.

Whoa, that looked bad. Glad all were OK!

One of the countless things I learned Saturday was filling out an incident report. I was task with watching the corkscrew with a yellow for 13 when the Miata went 4 off in 15, came back and hit the blue first gen RX7 on the home straight. Looked like a new paint job :-( Happily both continued on their way. I witnessed it though Ed wrote it up. What he stressed to me before even having me open my mouth was report what you saw, not your opinion of what you saw. Exactly what I would have done.

So what was the incident report here? What happened? Not that I'll ever be in pack that's just done a rolling start.

And thanks Mark. That's all I needed to cinch the decision on the roll/harness bar. Scary stuff in a wings and things car.
