Kurtis is fine. He will be in my Nova in 2 weeks at Fontana PSCA event. Just gotta put a set of 10.5s on it. The car only runs 7.teens and 20s but it will get him back in the saddle while he gets the Mustang fixed or does what I want him to do and parts it out and buys a new one. Its his call. I just thank god the safety features did their job my only son is ok to race another day. After all. Its just a bunch of tubes with a body on it (gotta admit it was a preety bunch of tubes with a body a couple of days ago) and can be replaced. I'm getting to old to make a new kid (its still fun pretending though).

Brake Caliper locked up after the stripe.... Car isn't all *that* bad really. The roof is steel, and so it took most all the damage of being on the lid. Cage is perfect. Front clip, new roof skin, little bit of lexan and some body/paint and the roller will be pretty much set.
