After the race was finished, a few of the flaggers came up to me to shake my hand for avoiding that accident...they were saying I was very lucky I happen to catch him spinning at the right time.

The end of an era... At one point we had four of these cars running around, two in H Prod trim and two in B-Spec trim, now only one survives - for the moment anyway.

The Cal Club Region of SCCA asked if the emergency crew could use one of the cars for training before it was sent to the crusher, Toyota was cool with it, and since I want those guys to be good at their job if I ever need them I hauled the #18 up to Buttonwillow on Saturday so they could cut into it.



And they did just that. Jaws of life and a number of other specialty tools were put to the test. In some cases these items had not been used in years, and they rarely get the opportunity to hack up an actual race car under controlled conditions.







I even got to try it out, these tools have an awesome amount of power.


What is left gets sent off to the crusher now.
