Maybe you should have thought of that as you were speeding around the corner? All I'm saying, and like everyone else told Tom.....if you can't pay the fine, don't do the crime. I'm tired of hearing how everyone wants to get out of it for this and that reason....well, if you can't afford to have insurance skyrocket, drive normal. That's all....

I would try to get out of it. The fines are going to be expensive along with the insurance hike. From what I have heard, a wreckless is just as bad as a DWI. I would try to say that someone cut you off or something. Say you didn't bring it up at the time with the officer becasue you were not thinking strait after the accident.

BTW, what other damage was done to make you assume you car is going to be totalled? You didn't mention rolling it, or any other body damage...just the control arm snapping which wouldn't cause enough to total a car out. Just curious.....

I'll take pics tomorrow, and I personally think that destroying my pride and joy was lesson enough. I won't do it again, and I don't think me paying some fine will make me realize the err in my ways anymore than I already do...Everyone makes mistakes, to err is human...Live and learn, live and learn...

Sorry to hear about this Chris, I wish I could help you out with parts but all the stuff I have laying around right now is for a 1G.

Thanks for the support guys, I appreciate it...If anyone wants to really go out of the way the "going back to stock" party started tonight and hopefully ends tomorrow ;)

Chris

Hey sorry to hear about your loss. That really sucks.

Im about to join you in the going back to stock idea. My car decided it wouldnt start about an hour ago after a movie. Car has been hard to start ever since the new 190 fuel pump and cold weather set in... Im pissed and want a reliable car back. Ill try and fix it tommorow...

Sorry to whore up the thread. I would come and helo but tommorow I got my own headache and I was planning on studying tommrow for school... GRRRR :fworld: :censored:

Sorry I would help but the vikings are playing the packers and I have alot of homework.

I have some pretty hefty homework myself...I already have a heated garage and two other guys, so all is good...Thank guys!

Chris

Well got everything out, and even got to keep my wheels and tires...The appraiser was buy today and it is totalled. Guess I will be DSMless for a while...Now I need to worry about this damn wreckless ticket...

What a week from hell indeed...

Chris

yeah your welcome for the heat for that garage!!! haha glad to hear that you got to keep your wheels dude! Look in the for sale section dude.....thers a 1G for sale....or trade...trade him the honda!!!!

KJ

did you think to try to buy it back? I know a guy that had a gread 95 gsx that he bought back for 900 bucks... he ended up fixing it because it was so nice but if he didn't it would have made a great parts car. just a thought that you might be intrested in.

I'm waiting to see what the price will be, but it is a definate option...

Chris

dang dude that really sux. It's funny cuz like the person who told me about this site was telling me how awesome he thought your car was. His name is Erik, he's kinda a friend of a friend, i've only met him like once or twice, but he seems kinda cool. But he said he raced around with you one day. He just bought a 1g gst. and he was tellin me about your car, and said that u were like a member on this site. Then he told me your name on here and i started laughin cuz i have a rear license plate frame that says across the top 4G63, and the bottom reads "V8 KILLA!" and it kinda reminded me of your name. anyway, sux about the car tho, maybe its a sign to go awd man!

Do you still need a T25?

Pictures of the totalled car?

Well here they are...

It is hard to see why exactly it is totalled, I tried to get some pics of the bent subframe stuff but they didn't turn out well...On top of the obvious suspension parts both the front and rear supports that go under the car are bent to hell. And there is some damage to the front bumper, rocker panel, and some other things I am sure...Oh yeah, the axle pulled out of the boot on the passenger side too...

Enjoy!

Chris

Didn't you have problems with the boot thingy at the Shootout?

Well the outer boot kept tearing, that was the driver's side...The inner part of the passenger side axle is what got torn apart in the accident...

Maybe I can get the video of my car being dragged onto the flatbed, that would e fun!

Chris

Went to court today...Prosecutor knocked it down to a careless driving, but I got a $300 fine plus $70 in court fees!!! That hurts...
