It felt like a ravine at the time...I was doing about 70 when I went off and I went off a bit further back and it was a bit steeper I beleive.

I have only felt that level of panic/cold sweat once on the road. And I ended up in a median at 120.

Exactly WHY were you racing someone on a highway that is obviously pretty highly traveled?

You are lucky you didn't kill someone.

Is that a violin I hear playing soflty in the backround? Here come the street racing soap box preachers...I'm suprised it took this long for them to show up. Bottom line, I did not hit anyone (but it was very close), nobody got hurt and nothing got damaged...except my ego a little bit.


...where are the rest of the pics and the video footage? I know it's out there, I saw the camera.

Austin Ranch ... no, I don't know where it is. I don't get out much.

Here is the "before" pic that I received, it cracks me up that it only went through 3 people and my neighbor ended up with it. He's got a nicely modded C6 that he likes to hammer at MSR and TWS, you may meet him at one of the January or February track events.
This before pic was first sent out at 3:05 which is before you made this thread.

LOL...they probably thought it was you that spun out, I can't assume there are too many silver Black Series running around here. Austin Ranch is the name of the community I just bought a place in, it is kind of on the border of The Colony and Plano, it a pretty unique place...lots of single hotties and some MILFs too. I just moved into the place 2 weeks ago...same weekend I was supposed to do TMR with you. I'll be down here about 1 week each month, maybe more during the winter months, we'll have to grab a bite or a drink on my next visit.

Heres a link to Austin Ranch if you're interested.
