Another one bites the dust

This GT2 was annihilated this year. It takes a lot of force for a pole to dig into this cars structure that far. Sad day when another one dies. Driver is doing fine from what I understand which is the important part in all this.

Wow! Thank goodness the driver made it. The 911 did its job.

Broken legs? that looks like that pole went in far. Glad the driver is alright though.

Happy but surprised the driver is allright.
Not sure about buffing it out, but I am sure paintless dent removal should take care of it.

Driver may be "fine" but I but his underwear weren't.

Wheels probably just need a little "correction" before being ready for resale.
