An ignoble exit

This is pretty much the current state of my hillclimb "career"

The car is in my gararge, and the new front "clip" is ready to be welded on - got to get back to (employment) work to cover various sundries, parts, and hardware.

But that's a solid looking chassis. I assume you made out OK?

The damage occured from the trees I clipped before the ride down the (Black Diamond) ski trail. If you're gonna drive off a mountain, use a Kirkey seat and Impact Safety belts.
