You have a point... I would say anything under $50K is minor, in this case, I heard it was even less than that.

Our Black CGT that was at the event is tucked away sleeping safe and sound at the home fortress. (GMG)

Unfortunate occurrence, I hope the driver and those involved with the accident are okay.

Hence prefaced with "If thats what happened" and made a generic statement about the reported type of driving.

I got a ton of emails and calls from friends and clients who were in the area and thought it was our black CGT.

Luckily our car is safe and sound.............

Our prayers and thoughts are with the family and hope they will be ok.

CGT will bite if not using your noggin:

I hope no one was hurt.
This car must be taken seriously.
When I rode with TIMO BERNHARD in Leipzig in a CGT he kept the TC ON!
He took it off briefly to show me how he could kick the back end around with ease.

When I drove it, (on the street) , I obviously never touched my buddies TC button.
Extremely rewarding car that must be driven WITHIN ONES LIMITS. There is NO WAY
I could drive one as aggressively as I drive my 675 HP AWD, PSM 996 Turbo.

What's up Josh! Are you going to Concorso this year?

I want to see your F40! Let's catch up soon.

I don't think that black CGT's owner is on this board. It's a friend of a friend who just picked it up and thought he could manhandle the car with TC off. An obvious rookie to the Carrera GT.

Drop clutch starts are fun with the TC off, but not too much fun for that clutch!

Yo Tyson!

I'm skipping Concorso for the first time in over a decade. I'm all Quail this year on Friday. I haven't decided whether to bring the CGT or the F40. Either way I hope to see you down there.

Good to hear. It looked like Don Relentless CGT on the flat bed.

Dude's whack! The CGT is challenging enough with TC on. Nutz.
