Went down to Summit Point Motorsports in WV over the weekend to run my car. Sunday it rained all day so I had to run on street tires (my wets) and then Saturday it cleared up so I threw the R1's on. First run was going good until I ran over a fender screw or something that had a huge washer on it, lost my passenger side rear tire. Luckily I brought a spare with me. Had the tire guy swap out the dead for the not-dead, for $30 bucks. Went back out for my second run and about 25 min in my steering wheel came off mid-turn....(guess it never actually latched when I put it on) Went off the track and hit a barrier. It's only cosmetic and no one was hurt, but it still sucked. I have an in car video of the incident, I'll post it up as soon as I get the chance.

yeah, pushed the fender back so I can't open the driver side door, put some scuffs on the bumper, fender, and mirror, but other than that the only damage is my pride haha. Got real lucky.

Whew I'm glad to hear that for the most part the car is ok.

The most important thing is that you're not hurt!

absolutely, I have more money in safety gear than anything else haha

The radiator should be fine, it wasn't hemorrhaging or anything, I hit a big pillow like barrier protector thing and tires, I don't think anything is bent, it was also one of the slowest corners on the track... I'll know the extent of the damage when I get a chance to pull the bumper cover and fender off. GoPro Captured the whole thing

Looked it over, there is no frame damage, just some paint chips, cracked bumper and a funky looking fender. The video is uploading to youtube right now. Never had any issues with my pink dildo wheel, maybe I'll switch back haha
