Friend/co-worker rolled his car. Bummer
Thanks! Your car is a beast! I was standing along the front straight wall and saw you on some afternoon hot laps. That GTR rages down the front straight. Looks and sounds good.

Yeah there is an art to being an effective grid/hot pit boss, in terms of keeping a smooth flow on the track. Even gridding by lap time is tough. Everyone needs to get to the pit lane early and then they have to have everyone's times and then have a place to park everyone in order. And then they have to be willing to hold late comers until everyone on their warm up lap passes. Speed Ventures is the only group I've seen do it.

Anyway, I was sorry to hear about that roll.....
