I appreciate the kind words. It's definitely iconic. Back when I found out it was for sale I told my wife if I didn't buy it, I'd never get another chance! It's been in my garage for 20 years now!!! TomI've always loved your purple Zippo paint scheme.

Doc and I commented on the car when it was for sale back in 2016 HERE, might be a discussion of the car on this forum as well. I do remember the entire rear clip from "B" pillar back was replaced, not unlike the front clip my old #99 needed after the person I sold it to pushed the nose a few feet off to the side at a track outside Chicago. Difference being GJR did the work on my old car, where we are uncertain who did the work on #174.Hey guys, since there is a wealth of knowledge and history on the board here, I’m going to take a stab in the dark.
Just purchased ‘95 R #174 on the forum here. Lots of detailed information in the marketplace on this car and the infamous accident.
My question, anyone have pictures of the vehicle after the crash by chance or further history on this car? Not worried about it but looking to build a book.
Love automotive history.

And a 1994 Cobra:Here was my post:
I remember this car.
It was in the late 1990's when HSR had a Group 1 class. You had to have a rollbar, harness, fire suit, and helmet. No fuel cell was required.
I had a British car at the time which was broken (got rid of it) so I was running a 1994 Cobra in Group 1.
I was following this Cobra R since I like them. He got too hot going into T-6 at Road Atlanta, and the car snapped around and backed into the tire wall so hard that the tires came off the ground. I was surprised that the guy wasn't injured.

First, the repair industry is very good today. The problem is getting all four corners adjusted properly today. It's a huge issue with a lack of body experts like MrMustang.
I've known Tom for years. I once owned the Stars and Strips car that I raced in vintage:
