Angry Help please! I'm turning down my friends driveway...

and I scrape the underbody! I was stuuuupid for not realizing I was too weighted down with lots of stuff in the back and passenger seat. I'm so pissed at myself. I took a look and I crushed and cracked the circled part in the pic. Is this really bad? I'm taking my car to a track in a couple weeks, do I need to cancel? Thanks for any and all replies!

STOP BEFORE YOUR CAR COLLAPSES!



J/k, need a better pic. It's probably fine.

The V-shaped brace is the lowest point in the rear and what normaly gets scraped. The area you circled is simply the rear body pan. If you had to bend something that would be the best thing. Structuraly the car is fine. I posted because I own a used 03 and have simaler damage. On my car it looks like some j-hole jacked up the car there on one side and got the gastank on the other.

It's not the V-brace, that looks OK. I think Dale280z is right, it's the body pan. But here is a pic of it.
