Road America damage report, part 1

Sorry, a race update will follow later tonight or tomorrow. But I did a little initial investigation of the damage. So pretty clearly the driver side inner tie rod is gone.


Lower a-arm looks to be okay.


Upper a-arm looks to be straight and okay as well.


Radiator, not okay. We knew this from previous inspection at the track.


And the left frame horn seems to have tweaked a bit. How much? Not sure. Enough to matter? Not sure. Hopefully its all in front of the suspension and shock mount points, and those stayed straight.


Lastly, the engine will not start. Not sure why. Something may have gotten disconnected, but the old ignition switch didn't work either. So a fuse probably blew (hopefully that's all). We'll be checking it over more tomorrow. It would go back into the garage a lot easier if it was running.
