    Amen,..
    That was very bad. I am very thankful that Jason is ok.
    Theres nothing like seeing a good friend crash like that, and saying holy
    shit ,and praying, please be alright, and then the sigh of relief
    seeing Jason climb out of the wreckage., Jason Rupert is one tough son of a gun,..
    Pipe and plastic can always be replaced, a good friend, or a loved one
    is always, and will be only, a one time thing.

    Hope to see ya back at the track real soon.

    I watched the album of pictures. I'm so glad that he got through this one OK. At first, I thought that he had actually hit the other car, but then, looking at the individual pictures, it appears that it was close, but the other car "squeezed through". I'm so glad that that both racers walked out of this one!
    Wow!:eek:

    Jason - glad we got to talk to you, so we know you are ok.
    That's the important thing. Grant -as always- did good.
    It always hits a little closer to home when your buddies
    wreck thier cars. We are here for you Jay.

    Thank you all for your concern. I'll never complain about the price of any piece of safety equiptment again. the ISPformfit seat, ISP new rollbar padding, DT 7 Point harnesses, Simpson firesuite, and helmit, DT boots, Ringers gloves, Grants awsome car, and of course the safety crew at the track, kept me from being a statistic. Going into the finals I was thinking this is a pretty good way to start out a 4 race in a row deal, 5 minutes later I'm looking at a bunch of torn up junk. Things can certainly change in a matter of seconds. We'll be back as soon as we can. Thanks again for the concern.

    Certainly glad to hear that you're alright Jason. Or at least as all right as you've ever been!! Jeez, first Peanut's deal and then you. Enuf already.
    I'll buy you lunch just to hear the story, but only if your dad comes too. I'll call you. Rest up in the meantime.

    Matt,
    I'm not getting anything out of the Webshots video. Am I doing something wrong, or is it not working correctly?

    Dam Jason,
    someone told me you crashed and I just looked it up. I hit the wall in Tulsa last year but only minor damage. You did it up big time. It happens so quick.
    Glad you are all right. See you some day at the track.
