In all seriousness -- COTA is an extremely safe track -- there is a ton of run off everywhere.

You can certainly loose it and pick up a bill -- but I've also heard that because of the safer barriers they use -- the damage to your car is often minimized.

You might pick up a $2000 bill -- but save $10K in car damages.
