So it has been trashed twice already? Both during exhibition runs? Maybe that says something about running the car at anything less than race speeds.

From Ferrari chat...

That was awful when Art stuffed the F50 GT1, I was nearby & heard an engine overrevving awfully & ran to the wall. I felt sick to my stomach when I saw it, what a shame.

Watkins Glen & many other tracks have started using giant styrofoam blocks to line their cement retaining walls. If Laguna had done this the damage would have been much less for Art.

I was talking to Art 20 minutes before the wreck & he told me he just got the car back 4 days before from Ferrari in Italy where they had it for 1 1/2 years fixing it from the last wreck

I guess exploding my trans in my 512TR doesnt seem so bad now

I have a DVD with some chase-car footage of this car. Some incar video (even of the wreck ) would be nice.
