I heard about this from my brother who went, God damn it looks worst than his description.

I'm not sure if they post it online yet or not. I watched the video footage a few times while we're waiting for the track to be clear on that day. Lucky the driver OK after the crash.

I got 2 pictures shared from other fellows taken on the crash site.

Always sad when this happens on a track because the driver was already responsible for racing on a track instead of the streets.

It sucks for him and all the best to the owner!

I've never been on Shannonville - but I jacked my front driver-side wheel bearing doing something similar - went wide on a turn, and went one wheel off the rumble-strip.
Unfortunately, lots of people had done that before me, so there was a nice ditch/rut for my wheel to snag on.

In retrospect, much happier outcome than the owner of this supercharged FRS got....

Of course I don't know what the total damage was but that car looks far from totaled. New bumper cover and maybe some plumbing and suspension repairs and it looks like it would live again.

Oh and a new side airbag of course.
