Glad its not too serious - most importantly Mike is okay. I guess that is the only downside of such a fantastic graphic'ed paint job - repairs are
always time consuming! Best of luck getting it back on the track to the CBB crew.

Big Bummer.
I know these guy's will get her back together, but less testing time for Portland. 
Good luck with the repairs.

No, Not good at all, my reaction made my son and nieces come running into the computer room. Good luck in a quick rebuild, i love that thing.

Crap crap crap
Sorry to see such a beautiful car get damaged so early into setting it up.
The motor does sound absolutely awesome.
Best of luck with the repairs. Hoping for superficial damage only (nothing bent).
I am looking forward to seeing it run in the flesh!!

I spoke with mike and the car damage is very minor.
the wheely bars seem to have protected the whole rear of the car from ANY damage,
and only the nose will need to be repaired (quite easily) early next week.
The only other minor damage is one front wheel has a bit of damage that will easily be roll-repaired.
It seems that the track condition was just a little less than needed for this car, and the other three that crashed that night.
Once it was out of the groove he was along for the ride, even with total opposite lock.
Mike WILL be at portland,
and the biggest annoyance is the slight glitch in his development shedule before then.
Looking forward to Portland!!

Thanks again Dave for the update.
So wheelie bars are not just for controling wheelstands!

Hi
That's a real shame, as long the driver and everyone else is OK, cars can be fixed so no real harm done.
The car seemed to be running fine, any ideas what made it get out of shape?

Definitely a real shame. Glad to hear it's nothing overly serious though.
