Glen,
I goofed. At the infamous turn 6A, getting a little too close to the car ahead of me I think I lifted a little at an inopportune time. Lost traction, spun and hit guard rail breaking my rear toe link and one upper link (dogbone). Car inoperable. Was the last run on Saturday - Sunday was pretty much a washout anyway, most folks left by noon or so.
I felt bad for my instructor (Mark Hendrickson - a great guy from OH) who had just signed me off for solo. Damm!!
Great learning experience though, and driving in the rain was a blast. Car is fantastic.
