Some dude who owned a silver audi.

Now, for a non-jackass answer, it was aparently an instructor, and he did it the day before all the students showed up. I believe Dean said he put two tires off on the exit of turn 9.

Yes it was an instructor on his second lap of the event! Fortunately both driver and passenger only suffered bruises and an Insurance mess to follow.

Yeah, what you can't see in that picture, is Mike's radiator literally covered with butterflys. I'm suprised they didn't cause overheating issues.

I played around with the levels and contrast of the grill, and the butterflys are kinda popping out in this picture.

Ug, it kinda is making me ill looking at it again.

Fortunately they cleaned up pretty easy for me. Mike's radiator looked like some bad 70's wall paper.

It only took me about 20 minutes w/ the high-pressure setting on the hose nozzle and a bucket and a sponge to get the carnage off the front of my car.

Hey guys,

This is Tim w/ the Nogaro Blue S4 Avant. It was kewl to meet up with some of you as well as catch up w/ Michael. I'm green in envy as your cars are so stable through the esses. What a speed gap between my conservative 105 'ish to your speeds through there (ask Mike as he felt how soft the suspension was). It would've been fun to have spent more time in your cars for the weekend. But it wrapped up on a good note as Allen came by for his last session and asked me to join him. It was a lot of fun and a good way to wrap up the weekend.

T.
