I heard from Adam at Z1, it means SSR is out of business too not just bankrupt. Anyone carry them in stock? Looking to pick up a set of SSR Comps in light grey/polished.

Ditto that. We all make mistakes, no one is perfect. Should we stop track days when someone flips their car at a track?

Maron, are you sure the suspension is ok? have it checked for alignment just in case. i've hit a curb before that was same height as the one in the pic with left front wheel at only 15mph and slightly bent lower arm and tie rod on that side.

so how did the course workers call that in? was it a 2 cone count call for hitting the portapotty? Or was it 4 cones for hitting an occupied porta potty?

I hope it was something more creative than a DNF

Good aim BTW

Hey maron if that car had any feedback like the STi you gave up I bet you would have felt it letting loose and caught it. So did you have the driveline on track or snow setting?

If you keep having porta potties fall on you like the wicked witch you know you are going to be saying "I am not in KS" when the nationals roll around.

So as you were losing it were you looking directly at the porta potty - look where you want to go don't look where you don't want to go!

They should've put some orange cones around the Port-a-potty; then every driver would avoid it like the plague!
