Re: 1997 GSX - DD, RR, and 11's.

Oh the joys of owning a dsm.

So yesterday I finish installing the new hx40. Every thing went together perfectly.

And decided to take the car to work today....when....

On my way into work, I was taking it easy on the car as I just finished working on it and at about 4 miles from work I'm cruising along doing 40mph, which probably saved my life.

A young blonde women who looked like she was texting and driving or picking something up in the passenger seat. Started slowly creeping into my lane, then she drastically swerved into my lane. And now she is completely head on coming at me in my lane. I grab the ditch and she's now still coming over she's hit the rumble strips on my shoulder which got her to look up. She get 2 tires off in my shoulder and we are less then 3 Car lengths away and she swerved back into my lane. Missing my car by inches.

And stupid bitch didnt even get back in her own lane or slow down, she stayed in my lane for at least another 1/4 mile before getting back into hers before going around a blind corner.

And now my car is smoking like crazy. Pretty sure I dented the oil pan.but didnt get a chance to take a good look.
