Didnt know Whitaker raced with HC, again? I thought he was "done" with them? Regardless, badass. John is one effing cool guy.

Nice pics! Look at all those Honda Challenge cars. Pretty nice. It'll be nice to see your cars at Nationals this year. You guys ARE going, right?

Here is the video that goes along with this photo. This is Wade's in-car for the PT start (I was running PTC, not H1). I'm two rows ahead of the camera car, and on the left side of the track...

Yep. You can see going into Turn 1 that his brake lights work, yet when you see the car spinning at around 49 seconds in... you can clearly see that he isn't on them. Instead of just spinning off (and maybe hitting the white Sentra) he caused damage to FIVE cars.

Wow, that whole notion of aiming for the spinning car to avoid a collsion does work. Too bad for the guy in the black civic though.

I'm waiting on the call back from the body shop that looked at it this morning. Andrew Lee donated a replacement bumper cover, and it looks like I might get away with just a hood, fender, radiator, and radiator support. The shock towers look even, and the door seams are still pretty straight. I won't know for sure about the header until the bent radiator support is removed, but the 3 of the 4 pipes off of the head that I can see are undamaged.

Quite honestly, I have no idea how the damage isn't worse than it is... I hit him pretty damn hard (my left hand/wrist still hurts from the impact).

I just hit a tire wall at 80mph, and was able to fix it with the help of a friend.

Body shop is going to $$$$$$

If its just a radiator support and the other stuff, that can all be done in the garage.

the radiator support is ~$220.00 OE.

I'd def suggest looking into doing the work yourself.. it saves tons of $$$


Crashing sucks, and spending tons of $$$$ to fix it sucks even worse.

Sorry to hear that meng. If your shock towers are straight then you're in pretty good shape. But you gotta make sure they are straight. Even if they LOOK straight, make sure the measurements SAY they're straight. You don't want to replace your core support only to find out the rest of the clip is bent. Don't ask me how I know....just trust that I know.....
