That really sucks, but if you're gonna race you better know the consequences. A couple years back, my brother snagged a ride in a vintage Camaro Trans Am racer at Sears Point, driven by Tomy Drissi. After a couple full-race speed laps, they pulled into the pits and my brother asked Drissi how much the car was worth, given it's history and all. Drissi said it was likely worth about $200,000. My brother was amazed and aske if he ever worried about it getting damaged, since it spent mor time sideways than not. Tomy told him, " it's a race car, don't you think it's ever been wrecked before?" That's a good point. I mean, think about it, one of the original Daytona coupes once was virtually wiped out in a transporter accident during it's racing days, yet it was rebuilt. A genuine Ford GT40 was recently discovered out in back of Salt Walther's old race shop after it had been detroyed in a fire AND LATER BURIED! Yet it was deemed valuable enough to dig up and restore. Those cars aren't damaged that bad, and they aren't owned by guys like you and I. Rich people own those cars, and if they have the means to own and race them, they have the means to fix them. I'd worry about the drivers...
