The way out is through
Default Wrecked WRX just outside the IGT parking lot.

Looks like someone w/ a Silver WRX Wagon turned in front of a Red K car (I think that's what it was) trying to get into the IGT parking lot this morning around 11 or so. WRX took a solid T-Bone hit to the passenger side. The K car's front end was trashed, but the WRX's side impact beams seemed to have held up very well.

There was an ambulance there as I was leaving for lunch, so hopefully no one was too badly hurt.

On a side note, I'd bet the WRX is totaled, so there'll be a pretty good motor and tranny in the yard soon... but I'd guess it's an automatic (IIRC from seeing it in the parking lot, the wagon's an auto).
