Ouch. He recently crashed his original GT40 in a vintage event. Tire failure at 180MPH. He's OK.

That'll buff out...
Maybe you can rent him that rotisserie .... ;)
...and my acetylene torch and hammer and dolly set. And, I suppose my grinder, cut-off wheel, welder...:D
Unbelievable... the car is completely destroyed... I heard he had a flat tire....but not sure....In any case, they kept it quiet during the event....;)
Hello? Haggerty? Uh... I need to file a claim. Uh-huh... A old lady backed into me at a concours d' elegance. Yea, that's right. She was going pretty fast too.

I'm sure they've heard just about every story in the book .... ;)
The price you pay if you want to play....
Sad.
I was there.... Tire did not fail until after he lost it. But I am sure thats the story now. Nuf said!
That really sucks. Brings to mind a recent interview with Max Mosley in Autosport Magazine. (Jackie Stewart on the cover) He feels only replicas should be raced. Original cars belong in a museum. I don't agree. But a real shame about that car.
