Did it ever leave the Porsche Curves where it hit the wall?

Don't think so, most of the fan pics I've seen on Twitter have it caged like a wild animal in a little pen behind the Porsche Curves!

According to the Autosport forums, Motoyama is still working on the car with few tools he got. Is he still around the car or abandoned for good?

We're done. Unfortunately we got pushed off the road by a Toyota. Superhuman effort from Satoshi Motoyama to try to repair the car and get it back to the pits. Details to follow....

I honestly thought it would have survived that smack into the wall because of the narrowness of the car meaning less contact into the wall and with that angle the car was going the wall as well. But it didnt quite work out!

On radio le mans they're explaining how less mass means less impact, basic physics.

And Marino thinks the car would've survived the impact with the wall, its just having a hard hit with the Toyota on one side and then a hard-ish hit on the other side is what did for it.

IT would've survived one of those impacts, but not both ;)

I have a flash (iPhone 4) but a week of camping has gotten it a little dirty and lights reflecting strangely. :-/

I've pulled some spiderman shit and have climbed a portacabin. Image
