I'm just glad the car's ok!
He's lucky that happened right off the line and not after he had some speed built up... God, can you imagine how tragic it would have been if that happened during a hard turn?

that was the cleanest r2(95=ultra rare) out there! the ONLY thing wrong with the car WAS some rock chips on the left front quarter and the fading wing. fritz is an awesome auto guy and solid driver. the wheels came off due to being sold the wrong size by accident. a 1/2-20 will screw down on the 12x125 stud and tourqe even sometimes however it WILL NOT handle driving force loads as seen. That is exactly what happened to him. the damage now is two front fenders and some adjustment to the rear quarters at a competent body shop. bummer!
*oops* oh well too late but it suck for him... at least it wasnt worse huh?
