Always drive within your means, use your mirrors, and leave the ego at home.Everyone is there for the same reason. All Are gear heads !!!

Well that post brings back memories of NJMP...
That said, for a period last year, at Lime Rock, Mont Tremblant and NJMP, all three in a row, I had somebody in a twin, either paddocked next to me or a car over that wrecked in every event. Two of them were relatively experienced drivers with at least 20+ events and one of them was an instructor with 15+ years of experience. One went off coming out of big bend (Lime Rock) and hit the inside wall, (not totaled but not drive-able) one went off at MT, in the turn 1-2-3 complex, spun, hit the wall, again, not totaled but, well, not drive-able but he drove it anyway, and one at NJMP Thunderbolt, went in too hot at at T4, understeered, put a tire on the grass and hit the inside tire barrier, not totaled but also not drive-able.
It happens.
