Track day: 944 takes out a C5 Z06 (pics) Cobra4b's twin
Found this on rennlist
=that vette was using normal road tyres, they are toyo T1S.
My fave quote
"Lastly, at the first event I ran this year, a ZO6 blew it's engine and took out a GT3. So, all is well in the Universe."
hahaha

Basically the engine blew coming out of turn 4 at Laguna Seca, Vette was following the 944, hit the oil slick and spun into the inside wall. No injuries - the airbags didn't even go off in the vette.
The 944:
The damage (note the area encircled):
The vette:
And yes, it does suck for the vette guy, but he was being a complete douche about it afterwards so whatever. :thumbup:
