Holy crap....

Hey guys, I just came back from a short food run, I was going down 60west, caught a glimps of a black rx-8 racing an evo going like really really fast ( I was going 90ish and those 2 just flew by)

anyhow, a moment later, I saw the black rx-8 flipped and liquid leaking out of it on the ditch, anyone know that guy?

if you're on here, hope you're ok.......

no I didn't, because the evo guy was there with a cell phone in hand, and I was going 90 dude...........I think it was likely for me that my car will end up just like that one if I tried...

anyways, the REAL moral of the story is

"theres something called a race track!"

Heh.

I was just blasting down the 60 about an hour ago. Lemme check...









Nope. My '8 is right-side-up in the garage. I guess black really is the best color.

you will be amazed as to what happens to a car and driver if just one tire blows at 90.

its probably "crash your car" month or something, besides rx-8s theres wayyy too much accidents going on

especially yesterday, people blew their tires left and right on just about every damn freeway, probably cus the heat though

ACTUALLY...

it's Hate An 8 Month

The evo probably threw something out of the car because he couldn't believe the 8 was keeping up.

considering how much dust there is in CA, its actually not a bad idea

atilla, funny you should mention that because while on the 57 southbound going to 22 west, a kid in a dodge caravan "accidentally" dropped his drink out of his car (the windows were all open, like all of them) I was on the right of his car, the drink (which was those paper cups you buy from fast food places) hit my hood, and spilled, by the time I got to CSULB, it was all dark and patchy on my car....

I ma wash her tmr

back to the top.....so he's not on the forums? anyone?

See! Told ya! Nothing hides AZ dust like the Titanium. The black you do one day without washing and your car looks brown! No wonder you only wash one side

Yeah, the AZ dust just makes the TiT look rusty.
