H5 Civic Meets Great Wall of Hotlanta
I put it in the wall on the inside of T1. Broke the lower control arm, axle, bent shock, basically a front right corner, rear trailing arm and good ol body work. The car wouldnt roll foward, so we pushed it up on the trailer backwards.

I put my car into the armco at LRP during Friday's qualifying session in the rain. No suspension damage or engine damage. A good deal of plastic was broken though.

Re: (ZUL8R)
that video is not all that fun to watch.... 
I feel "hurty" when the wall smack happens. 
Its either push your car to the limit(and maybe have to deal with the consiquences) ....or putt around the track like a turtle.
I am just glad you are o.k.
*heart*

Ahhh .. that makes sense. I was thinking "damn those ratios suck" while watching your vid. You're constantly out of the powerband on upshifts and downshifts practically peg the tach. If you can swing it, I'd imagine a $500-ish FD from Kiwi for that box would be well worth the cash.
