Well, in the CA drivers' defense, it is very difficult to control and SUV with your knees in the rain while sipping a capachino, talking on a cell phone, and yelling at the kids in the back seat..... (yes, I hate yuppies!)

Cripes, I don't like driving in that kind of weather to get to work. No way I'd race in that. At least, not in my own car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Ask Dr Mazzone about that sometime, $20,000.00 paint and body damage to his 993 a few years ago from hydroplaning off the 101 in Arroyo Grande one day.

Amazing video!

Unbelievable carnage!

Unbelievably stupid track workers/crew members!

I'll bet the guy clobbered by the Viper's bodywork is still sore after a week. Very lucky to be alive.
