Yeah.... I FEEL his pain!

Course my Boo Boo was caused by a "loose nut behind the steering wheel"; NOT the fault of the car. However, that same day there were a couple GT-Rs that went off the runway while standing on the brakes!

Lucky for them (and ME!) it had rained the night before and there was 6" of water standing around the end of the runway to act as a "water brake".

I'm thinking a drag chute for 200 mph cars wouldn't be a bad idea.
