That was a hard hit! The other guy's wheel went flying from the impact. All in pretty lucky as this could have been worse. How did the other guy fair?

Sheit!

I don't know that driver but he made two critical mistakes in a very spooky place on that track and now two cars are lost. He turned-in WAY too early for 9 which guaranteed he was taking a dirt bath at minimum, and then once all was lost, he failed to stand on his brakes (rear wheels turning backwards) guaranteeing he would collect you in the mayhem. An unavoidable collision for you Tom, sorry. I hate sharing the track with those guys.

Play this game long enough and bad stuff happens. Very fortunate the safety gear worked and both drivers are ok. Time to rebuild and renew.
