left the track and entered the trees ended upside down with significant damage. But the driver was not seriously hurt and the car was back together in less than a year.
Did that. Summit Point 2003. Took longer to mend the bones than to have the car rebodied.

Back on the tracks again after becoming a wrist restraint evangelist.

Had a laugh at Gainesville a few years later as I pulled on all my driving gear; a young first-timer walked over and said you can tell the ones who have had a crash - they have all the safety gear.

Don't underestimate these cars!
