from drc - Both cars start their burnouts and then Geise's turbo GTO gets in his own oil and nails the guard rail with the right front fender.

Found out Curt's OK. He'll be back at work tomorrow.. I'll give him a call and try to get details. Hope the GTO wasn't too damaged when he hit the guardrail.

Glad its not worse and hope Curt is fine. Hope the oil problem was something like an oil line and not a hurt motor.

Just talked to Curt. He's just a little stiff from hitting the guard rail. He's not exactly sure what caused the car to pull into the wall. As for the car, Curt said the GTO has a couple bent tubes and some body damage but the drivetrain is OK. If all goes well he'll be racing a Firebird in Super Gas this weekend. I have to give Curt credit for jumping right back on the saddle again so soon. Definitely a hardcore racer.
 Way to go Curt!

Thanks guys -- Got a sore neck and bruised ego -- Best I can fugure was to much wheel speed on the burn out - when I lifted the car was crooked and the the rear tires hooked and pushed the car sideways into to the wall - happened so fast I couldnt get hold of it in time - drive train and suspension all ok - some frame rails and a fuel cell have seen beter days along with some fiberglass damage -- one more leason learned -- I hope

X3! Sorry to hear about the mishap... I can certainly relate to tire hook when pointed in less than desireable directions! Hope you can get that animal back on the track no worse for wear.
