Mike, you are going to hell, I hope you know that, man.
Good to see that you're ok. Also very glad that the car took the kill, and not you. The car did it's job to make sure you're here to tell us what happened.
Got pics of the new car yet?

Holy crap. That could have been bad if you weren't in a tank.
Glad you are relatively ok, what happened? Did you fall asleep or anything?

Too bad the front end is SOOOO smashed up, I'd buy the engine/tranny from it if it were salvageable.

Glad your okay, just like the I said that these cars are excellent and I was in a worst accident then you but my damage to the car wasn't as bad as yours. The car is not that bad, just a little elbow grease and duck tape.  Put pics of your new car when you get a chance, I love those 2dr gps.

I never said it was the Daytona 500.
I think it was an ARCA race. I was thinking it is 1997. I didn't know grand prix pace car is on ARCA race. All I know I have seen grand prix pace car on Winston Cup.
