We all have to remember that this sport is not without dangers...
DO NOT CHEAP OUT ON THE DRIVER SAFETY GEAR/CAGE/FIRE SYSTEM/CAR EXIT PRACTICE/ETC
After seeing this, I have decided to buy a NASCAR type seat...broken ribs never heal!

Weekend at Nats in finally done! Awesome weekend! Many of the Spec Z guys had issues as you already know. The common thing seemed to be brake fade. Another guy blew his engine I think. That guy (can't remember his name) I guess works for Nissan Motorsports. He came over and gave me some stickers, Nismo hat and t-shirt.
I finished 2nd in TTB with a new best time of 1:36.3. I was 1.6 seconds faster than last year. That is faster than the TTB regional record. I was in first place all weekend long until the last session. One of the regional guys that normally beats me put down a sick time in his S2K....a 1:35.7. I am really excited to know I ran faster than the fastest Spec Z guy though. We are in different trim, but nonetheless the same car around the same car. I am also on stock shocks and 100lbs heavier than I would be in Spec Z. I will put up some pics and videos soon.
oh yea....one of you guys posted earlier about Jeremy's time being DQ'd. He came in high on the dyno...

Nothing Spec Z specific, just lots of "rubbing is racing" going on at the National level...and two upside-down Spec Zs .
NOTE: I don't know what caused either Spec Z incident...but watching the Championship races give me a good hint that there was contact...
On a different note, the average speeds were around 75-80 MPH, that is somewhat surprising! I don't think NASA-SE run on a track with that low of a average speed.
