Chris,

Taka had said that you had dome difficulty at the track. I had thought it
was
fixable. Sorry that it didn't turn out that way. As for the insurance, I
actually
think the insurance company is being quite reasonable. Most companies
wouldn't even consider a compromise in the value of your car, and simply
would think of it as an 11 year old Audi. The mods really wouldn't count.
I
am assuming that you've reached some sort of agreement on how your
car got damaged, as most companies wouldn't even consider covering
track damage of any kind at all.

Good Luck,

LL - NY
