Re: 2013 Proving Grounds
Wow! I wonder if you had 5 point belts, would the damage be more or less in a side impact? Youd stay stationary but that might not be a good thing in such an impact?

Re: 2013 Proving Grounds
I don't really remember staring at the glove box to be honest, but I remember hitting the tire wall, sinking into it, then bouncing off and rotating about 120 degrees in the air. A "rough ride" doesn't quite cover it.
Rough ride. 
It was (and still is) a lot less painful than you'd think. I do have a substantial pain tolerance, but I'd still on my scales have expected an accident of this magnitude to have been way more painful. In the video after people arrive, I'm just sitting there chatting up staff and safety crews, "It just feels bruised", and it did at the time. They got me out of the vehicle and I put weight on my right leg "Uh, I think there may be something broken, changed my mind". Just me being typical me. No whiplash, no concussion, like hell a silly wall could get me to skip a beat on being myself. 
But in the end, I think my state can be chalked up to three things; luck, my choice of impact location on the vehicle, and Mitsu's damn fine handiwork in building a car to keep someone alive through a wreck like that.

All very true, that pic looks violent man. Very happy youre alright. Things would certainly not be the same without our Spaz.
