I’ve seen two rollovers on non-PCA track days. Occupants were sore but not hurt. It happens.
The worst crash I saw was in a fiberglass Cobra, although the roll bar didn’t come into it. After a few student laps, the instructor jumped in the driver seat, and obviously turned some hotter laps. At the end of Monticello, there’s a very long straight, 150mph+ if you got it, and then heavy braking into a switchback at 13/14; he must have put enough heat in them to boil the brake fluid b/c witnesses said he never slowed down for the hairpin at 18.
Helicopters, grim faces… made you think. I will forever more renew my brake fluid before an event.
