Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

26 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

During a track Day at the Dubai Autodrome (in United Arab Emirates), I was running in group A, I was driving BMW E36 M3 3.2 321hp (my 997 is back in the States) , and this GT3 was running Group B. I did not see the accident happen, but the track was closed for a hour to clean the oil and/or coolant. I talked to the owner (50 year old french guy). He said he went off the track and hit the barrier . Surprising he was very cool about it. He olso runs an Orange 997 GT3 RS NOTE: NO ONE was hurt. Driver and Passenger window are broken inside the vehicle, they are not rolled down. If you look close enough (not clear in the pictures) the rear quarter panel and the roof show signs of crumpling.

POST 2Original post

Looks like it's Bondo time. Thanks for sharing the pics, glad to hear nobody got hurt.

POST 3Original post

Ouch, that stings! Now he has to drive his 997 GT3, its a shame!

POST 5Original post

How much "out-of-pocket" you think the guy will have? Anyone? This is exactly the reason I am totally reluctant to "track" my car....but GOD, I'd love to!!!

POST 6Original post

Should have stolen his side markers and sold them to me. Notice how the hood just folded and didn't bend, And his headlights stayed in the same spot.

POST 11 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Some of the guys standing around said similar comments: "...I want to ask him if he would sell me the motor for $500". "...., I bet you will find the car on eBay, sometime soon...." I wanted his seats myself

POST 13Original post

Really. Also, in case it wasn't obvious, I was trying to joke around with you rather than be a jerk.

POST 16 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

The old saying in racing goes "If you want to PLAY, you have PAY" Includes but not limited to: Gas, tires, entry fee, or even the car in this case.

POST 18Original post

Dibs on the wheels. Those would look good on my Lapis, then I could paint the calipers yellow, or white! Oh, damn, I forgot... my car is For Sale!

POST 19Original post

Dibs on the suspension uprights and ram air duct on the back decklid

POST 20Original post

i like the guy bringing the little kids over to look at it

POST 21Original post

What an ugly site.....sounds like the owner will "bounce" back fast. I was at the Glen a few years back when I saw the leftovers of a 996 TT X50 with another 50K into it get wrecked. The owner went off the track after the "esses" and ping ponged off the walls. Had a student with him too....no one injured, but boy....that was some car. I think he did the same thing again less than a year later with a similar newer car. Don't think he returned after that. Anyone know who I'm talking about??? J

POST 22Original post

Yes, it was the instructor driving the students new x50, he was used to a 200hp 911 not a x50TT. I remember it well, a lot pf sour feelings on all sides.

POST 23Original post

Valet drivers suck............. that's my story anyways.

POST 24Original post

It will be for sale on EBAY next month advertised as no track time and no accidents.
