  1. First track day, first crash day

    Anyone in the DMV want to take anything off this? It looks like I'll never get around to parting it out. I'm in Bowie MD. Part list is in the sig. Take your pick and name your price.
  2. First track day, first crash day

    I hit a wall so there was no track damage. My car was parked in their boneyard for over a month and there was no charge for that either.
  3. First track day, first crash day

    I agree with everything you said. The biggest mistake I made was not getting an instructor first. I treated track cross like autocross and disabled traction control for a better start like I would do at an autocross. Track was cold and damp and I was untrained and learned a valuable lesson. I'm...
  4. First track day, first crash day

    Well I finally got the car home. I'll be posting a part out thread in the next couple of days. Anyone know what I should be focusing on first?
  5. First track day, first crash day

    Well it looks like AAA won't pick up a car that was damaged at a track. Guy came, called AAA, and they said no. Waste of several hours of my life on my one day off. Guess I'm going to have to spend the near $500 to get it home.

    Got AAA. Picking it up next weekend.
  7. First track day, first crash day

    I'm told that I just need to make arrangements. No charge. It's what the boneyard is there for.
  8. First track day, first crash day

    That would be awesome thank you.
  9. First track day, first crash day

    I'm about to get AAA wait a week then do this. I had it but I let it expire in February.
  10. First track day, first crash day

    There will be a part out coming soon. Just need to get it back from Summit WV to Bowie MD. Trying to figure that out. Insurance isn't covering.
  11. First track day, first crash day

    Thank you sir. I hope to get back out there soon. It was good meeting with you too.
  12. First track day, first crash day

    I'm looking at it 50/50. If they pay for it, fantastic. I get a new car. If not, I deal with it by buying a cheap beater and use it as a learning opportunity. I chose (or forgot) to not get Track Day insurance. I guarantee that will never happen again.
  13. First track day, first crash day

    After. Didn't expect the wheel to be destroyed that much.
  14. First track day, first crash day

    Thanks for all the tips. I had a lot of fun up until the ambulance ride. I've reached out to my insurance company and waiting to hear back. I know they might not pay out but there policy is very specific about racing or "contests of speed" but not specific to tracks. I'm aware that I might not...
  15. First track day, first crash day

    So I got a little too happy with my car on the track. Decided I had the confidence to turn off traction control and go for it. Big mistake.
