Default Holy Snowstorm Batman!

So yesterday at VIR-N with the Mazda group was beautiful (except the damp first sessions). Today we shut down early due to the weather (rain/sleet/snow mix). Talk about mother nature having a sense of humor. *sigh* What a mess!

Students were great though, with all the wet there was only one that did damage to their car.

r2x ~ who thanks the Mazda guys for yet another fantastic event.

we dropped the guys car off at a body shop in fairfax. i'm guessing its totalled.

i guess you left before i took my little trip down to the river. i hydroplaned off the main straight near pit-in and ended up down by the trees past pit-out. prolly went a 1/4 mile sideways thru the grass. only damage was a busted air dam.

I was talking severe damage... sorry I wasn't specific. As usual, there were a few minor damage things (air dams, cracked bumper, etc).

Slightly off topic but... Joel, was that you towing a dark gray E30 on an open trailer behind a black Suburban or Tahoe with MD plates, driving down 195 South in Richmond, mid-day Friday? If so, that was me in the red Miata to your right just before the first tollbooth, trying to get your attention.

Sorry for the off topic,

Jon
