For starters the tracks can really benefit from a SAFER barrier or Soft Wall. Even just tires lining the walls would be a plus.
--------------------
The SAFER barrier consists of structural steel tubes welded together. Behind these tubes are bundles of closed-cell polystyrene foam, placed between the barrier and the concrete wall.
The theory behind the design is that the barrier absorbs a portion of the kinetic energy released when a race car makes contact with the wall. This energy is dissipated along a longer portion of the wall, instead of propelling the car back into traffic on the track.
An additional benefit of the SAFER barrier is that it reduces damage to the car itself, thereby reducing repair costs.

ah man.
for one i am glad the driver is okay. "dom hope you feel better soon." i stopped street racing after i flipped 6-7 times @ 130 mph on the highway( we must have the same angel). luckily there was no one going north bound and i had just had my roll cage put in the day before, it left my with a few cuts. i feel the track is responsible for the damage to your car and that from what you are saying should have shut the track down to get it right. never been to that track but isn't there safety regs. that they are held to.....who regulates them....we (us racers) have to follow rules and safety regs to ride down their track!!!!

Ammm. No.
You damm Texans are so out of it. Lay off the picante!
I believe Jesus 'Kilo' Padilla have that 9sec 'All Motor" rotary record pretty wrapped up for some time now. Actually he's the 'Proffessor' and we are just his followers.
So how about your help in finding us another RX-3.
