			'missed the pedal'??  Sounds like one of those 'Farmer's Market' incidents!  Was the driver over 70??

			From what I understand, his usual ride was a Vette with an automatic, and routinely used left-foot braking.  Went to do that in the GT3 at the end of the course and got the clutch instead of the brake...

			Just drove a 997 today at the autox.  How the F do you get into an accident in one of those cars?  They are so easy to drive, even at the low speed.  They are everything you can ask for as a driver.  Massive rear grip, crazy power and great handling, forget the left foot braking BS.  Just drive it and you will do fine even driving as a grandma.
