Something of a plan at least :p.
Regarding the fire, I don't know whose car it was. A yellow 6th gen Vette. I didn't want to be that guy asking a bunch of questions about it right after it happened.
This is the price list I received when I signed up for COTA:
Quote:
COTA is one of the very few FIA certified tracks in the US and as such, they have substantial damage fees. Please understand that you are responsible for any and all damages caused by you or your vehicle during the weekend. You will be required to sign a damage acknowledgment document and leave a credit card with us during the weekend to pay for any damages. Damage fees are:
- Guard rails - $195 per foot
- Tech pro barrier - $975 per block
- Catch fence panel - $780 per panel
- Catch fence pole - $975 per pole
- Oil dry absorbent - $65 per bag
- Liquid spill on track - $500 per corner (if you oil down the entire track this will cost you $10,500)
- Liquid spill paddock/pit lane/garages - $500 per area
- Pavement damage track/paddock/pit - TBD
|
Both blown motors resulted in a corner being oiled down so I'm sure they paid some money. The price list exists for a reason and I'm sure is strictly adhered to by the track.
