I lost it through 7. 8 is the clover leaf. The wall isn't particularly close but not much more than 2x-3X the track width away (100-200 feet?). At 60-70 MPH, 100-200 feet isn't a ton of space. I'll admit to be being optimistic at my speed for turn 7. There where a couple of things I could have done different to not be in the wall. Hind sight is 20/20. As a friend has noted I was more pissed about losing the AX event the weekend before than I was about bending my car up at BIR.

All in all I might come out of this a little bit better if I get the chassis I have my eye on right now. Hopefully everything works out. Either way, it's my own mistake, I won't say it was anything other than driver error.

Sorry to hear about green car #2 (well #3 technically) getting banged up. Glad you weren't hurt.

DO NOT BUY ANOTHER GREEN CAR!
