No, that's not a wheel, that's the fuel filler flap.

Hope the guy in the white car is also OK. Getting hit from the side without knowing it can be very hard to the body, because you're not as prepared as somebody seeing what might come next.

Regards, Markus

Certainly the fact you walked away is excellent news, but it is actually encouraging to see how well the boxster took the hit. Of course on the streets the airbags would have deployed and a standard seat belt would have much less restraining. I fear a driver with standard seat belts may have fair less well.

Good luck and always enjoy the show

Sorry, I should have mentioned that the other driver was also fine.
