Arte, I see your Bama dog. Reminds me of a story. A drunk comes into a bar and has a drink. Two guys are sitting close to him. He looks at one and says, A U B U R N! What does that mean?" The guy says, " Alabama Usually Beats Us Round November!" The drunk looks at the other guy and say, " U T" What does that mean?" Tha second goy says, "Us Too!"

My avatar is really for the benefit of a few in OT section. They really have a problem with Bama and I like to stir the pot a little for them. I am really a fan of many teams and different conferences. I have a friend that played for Cincy Bearcats. I was glad to see them with a good win last weekend. Looking forward to seeing all the guys/gals this weekend.

I missed the talk at BNA. I sure would like to hear you reminisce. 
I feel guilty consuming your time and picking your brain one on one.

Jim, there is nothing boring about a guy has been through a turn at Daytona at 180 mph upside down! Jerry

I never got the full story. I think someone spun, car behind couldn't avoid, I am not sure. Hope there is not much pain in getting the vehicles repaired.

Im told the M3 is a total. I guess the guy in the Vette thought he was time trialing? Thats a no pass zone right there unless you are in A group or an instructor(turn 14 or 14a). Or whichever one is at pit in.
I dont have all the facts yet, the driver of the M3 will call me tomorrow.

But, considering neither of us actually saw the incident, I suppose we should let those that saw it first hand comment if they desire. Attaining the facts may take more than just a phone call with your buddy.

i was going to go but had an owner's meeting for a condo in Orange Beach. cant believe there was another totaled car.. last time i was @ AMP somebody totaled there too. people are getting crazy with these HPDEs!
edit: thought i may know the car and owner, and sure enough i do. im so not getting in the middle of it, but everybody i know that was there is saying it was his (the corvette driver's) fault.
