Berk, as for a replacement, Im going to sit on this for a little while and at least let winter pass. No reason to buy it now and have it sit for 5 months. Ive been driving like a lunatic the past few months and this didnt come as much of a suprise. Im just glad it was relatively slow speed vs a highway accident. Im looking at a H1 Hummer right now...its so friggin slow though.

Wise choice going with the H1 Hummer slowing down for a few months might be a good idea. When you do pick up that next P-Car go to a DE event and work on getting the feel for the car under better controlled conditions, could be life saver! Be safe!

Yea, Im an idiot. I think the engin fell off the mounts, the front tires are facing different directions, all the windows shattered, side airbags deployed, body kit ripped off and the roll protection things behind the seats deployed as if I flipped it. Tow yard opens at 9am so I will post pics when I can. Not cool, not cool not cool.

Oh, and I walked out with only a bruised ego. This is my 14th car, 6 have been totaled and I have walked from all of them. This was the first that was my fault.

Pics to follow if I can survive the wife, she just got off graveyard shift...

tshack...out.
send us pics of the wreck>>>>>
