I got this link from my local SCCA mailing list. I have not downloaded it yet do to it's size and my dial up connection. I thought some of you would like to see what your car does when it rolls. Anybody from the website. The email said the person had supposedly just installed Ground Controls and a sway bar. I'll download it later.

Frank: being kind of hard on the guy, don't you think? I doubt anyone can be more down on him than himself anyway, at this point. That was his ride. Seems like the more appropriate thing to do would be to be glad he made it out unscathed...

I think he was referring to the fact that he hadn't posted the link in his first posting [and had to do a second].
Maybe you guys shouldn't be so quick to judge, either.

If that's the case, my apologies, though I wasn't trying to be offensive.

Yup, thats my famous movie just made on Sunday. We spent the better part of 14 hours on Saturday installing ground controls and konis on the car. It handled better than any car I had ridden in! I actually shaved 3 seconds off my time since the last time I had run on the track.
The resulting accident was a combination of driver error, cold track surface, and no runoff room.

Also, I certainly hope you were referring to yourself being stupid for not posting the link.

Who are you refering to being stupid? I hope that was not on Rick. Tell me if I read too far into this. Or if your saying this about forgetting to post a link? I hope it the "I forgot to post the link" so that is why you said what you said.
