    No, I crashed going - what I considered "easy" - on the 2nd pass in autox. Cold slicks, evening runs, too much rear bias, too much throttle too soon, all that.

    Wow. I have never seen someone try so hard to shut down questions.

    So, how did your old WRX hatch get totaled? Hmmm?

    Correct, just some tiny burns from the airbag on my arm. Before I race I slide my seat all the way back and as I pull my seatbelt close to the latch, I jerk it so the locks kick in and then I hold it tight while I latch it to keep the lock from releasing. Then I slide my seat pretty far forward, so I'm pretty close in on the wheel (I find it's easier to yank the car around when close to the wheel), and the seatbelt gets extremely tight. But being so tightly held in place by the seatbelt means I don't move around, at all. So when I crashed, I was held in place so the airbag could do its job. I didn't even get a bruise.

    He's not doing anything but respecting me, it's not his place to say what happened and I appreciate him leaving it to me to explain. That's all, no conspiracy lol
