Busy but fun day overall. Only one incident but a bad one. An instructor went off in a Z06 Corvette so far into the woods that you could not see any of the car from the track. He has a broken back (two places), fractured ribs, bruised heart and concussion. :(

Pete - that's too bad. What were the circumstances of his "off", and where was it? I hope he's going to be ok.

The guys I talked to Barry over at RRT said from what he heard the guy went off 10 somehow.

They shut the track down for almost 3.5 hours to get the car out of the woods.

Must have been a pretty big off in that area to end up in the woods.
