Hi Guys,

I am keeping track of any PMs and the order they come in. I still have to take a few pictures.

As I stated in my original post -- the wheels are already spoken for and I expect a deposit. Obviously, if something changes there I'll let everyone know.

I'm stupid busy with work and need to catch up.

I want to thank you all for the well wishes. I walked without a scratch. Air Bags didn't even deploy, but the damage tire walls can inflict in amazing. The car suffered bent and twist frame and rear partition. Early repair estimate to make like new exceeds the value of the BEFORE the shunt. Today's modern cars (without stiffening w/cages) really give themselves up for their occupants. NHTSA mandates have really made a huge difference. To me, it points out there are only two options for track... 1.) Complete race car set up with full cage, harnesses, back braces, Hans, fire systems, etc... or 2.) 100% bone stock as manufacturer intended. In that case the car will work 100% on protecting the driver without a care about saving the car.

I've seen so many "half baked" safety set ups... harnesses without a Hans and airbags turned off... roll cage without all other systems that will prevent the car from collapsing as intended by the manufacture... Just my HO.

Anyway -- sorry to rant. Thanks again and I'll be return the PMs.
