tremblant



The Audi twins.....my sons.....took to the road to go to Circuit de Mte. 
Tremblant for a COM Sports Car event.......
Raymond, with instructor in the car....turned in to early on a corner and 
backed into armco......no problem....couple of flat spotted tires, loose 
exhaust....scraped paint......Stephen goes out for his second 
session....can't seem to get the line correct in a very fast part of the 
course which is sweeping flat out turns......loops the car....hits a burm 
and an embankment and rolls the car -- twice......needless to say the MR2 
is a write off.....Stephen is pissed.....basically, wrong line for the 
exit at too slow of a speed and turn in too soon.....it's all on a wild 
video tape.....got to cut out the volume in a few 
places.....<VBG...oops>.....he's pretty depressed....but as we told 
him....there are two racers....those who have crashed (bad) and those 
waiting to crash....
Now.....the wierd part....this is just one year 3 months after 
Raymond...twin brother....rolled our street Audi....they say that if one 
twin does something....the other usually will later down the road....that 
is really scary....
I am happy to say the safety equipment in the race car did it's job and 
we may be able to use big chunks to rebuild the racecar with another 
tub....we just need a sponsor....any sponsors for the twins out there?
