5 star roll rating does not protect you from stupidity.

 

Get an ae86

 

 

i never said i was doing 80.. thats what my sig says ok
lemme help paint the picture

90 degree turn. me being way to aggressive on a canyon i didnt know to well, or as jedi says it being stupid. the left side of the mountain was a slow of mud and grass with a tree and a fence . i went over going to fast side ways , the side hit the fence thus i THINK causing the 8 to roll. i dont know if that makes any sense...i was kinda busy at the moment.

and i dont think ill ever get a car thats not a Rotary from now on.
but an 86 was my dream car when i was like 16.but im working on a car loan right now i found another 06 shinka same color in my area... just without the mods...i know i didnt have alot compared to everyonelse on here. but still.there will be a diffrence.

and as for alot of the questions of the 8 rolling and how it felt. to be honest i felt preety safe for being in a rolling car i just sucked into the bucket seat , and i dont have a bruise or scartch on me, i think i have ONE.. from the glass. but the 8 really is one hell of a safe car to be in .

 

mazel-tov on being alive and also proving first hand the build quality of our car!

 

WOW still no pics..

 

im really sorry about the no pix . but lake elsinore is far from where im at . and i dont have time to drive that far .

 

Oh i thought its the insurance company that isnt allowing you to take pics

 

damn that sucks that you totaled you car... i had a friend of mine that also crashed his car in the canyons 2004 acura rsx type-s. it was around 2 in the morning and my friend give me a call asking me to go to the canyon with him. so i roll out of my bed and meet him at the gas station near by. right when we get to the canyon and i was leading i noticed that he wasnt following me anymore so i waited for a little bit to see if he would catch up but didnt. called him, didnt pick up....kept calling him until he picked up and he finally did. asked him what happend to him and he told me that he slipped on gravel and fell down a 10 foot ditch. it was the most horrific thing ive ever seen. walked away with no injury. a brand new type-s flipped upside down. since then i just go to the track.

glad you made it out ok.

 

 

u know its been awhile and i just came back on this thread and realized.


some of you guys are ********.

and i got my new 8 = ).

 

^ Well, I wasn't part of this thread when this happened... So I must say..I'm glad you survived your wreck and Congrats on your new "8"...

Pix....!!!!

 

Okay guys, I want you all to think LONG, and HARD about this. Then start flaming the guy.

Have you never driven faster than the speed limit
Have you never raced anyone
Have you never done anything stupid in a car
Have you never put your own life or anyone else's in danger while driving a car
Have you never totaled a car or had an accident which you were at fault for
Have you never done anything wrong EVER.

Yes, what he did was completely stupid, and he seems to have learned the lesson from it, I will attest that I have done some stupid **** before and crashed 2 cars from stupid things, and I'm only 18, but I paid for those WITH MY MONEY, but liven up - most people will and have learned their lesson like this guy, take it to the track (which is what I do,) and don't repeat your mistakes. We all have to have a stupid life changing experience, no single one of us is perfect.

Oh, and one thing, please stop with all that "You're 18 and you don't deserve a nice car" bull-crap, a car is a car and as long as you're not a complete douche about having a nice car, then it's all good.

P.S. next time, don't try putting your car sideways, just try to get it through the turn, makes it a lot more fun.

 

Classy.

Obviously you didn't spend much of your time between RX8's improving your grammar or polishing your use of the English language. Lets at least hope you worked on your decision making and driving skills.

 

dude. it's done with. get over it. he made a mistake and made it a point to replace what he lost. you would do the same. and this is a car forum, not an english class. leave the kid alone.

 

Oh.......gee......so sorry.............gosh.........maybe I should have said what I really felt, that this kid must be a little dumb since it took him 4 months to just realize that some people were supposedly "being ********" towards him, then simply a wuss for sneaking in 4 months late to defend himself with some unclassy cheap shot post.

 

wow this thread was entertaining...thanks everyone...

 

Pics or </thread>

 

so what color this time?

 

his sig says galaxy grey. didn't know they made shinkas in that color...

 

WOW!!!!!!! this happend around the time mine got totalled too....and soo wierd we both got 8s too, and to top it off my cousin totalled his 8 too and bought another one....dont we all just love the 8?

 

Yes we do love "8's"... I love them so much I'm getting another one...That will be double the love....

 

no worries, we all make mistakes in life

never do it again

btw did anyone ever tell you that drifting < gripping? you win by gripping, not drifting................jesus, I dont know who got this ******* mentality about drifting > gripping

sigh

 

im sorry ******* #52 i just went back on her and read all the posts again and i had forgotten half the things that were said and realized DAMN, some of that stuff was COOOOLLLDDD BLOOOODDEEEDDDD..

and as for the color comment of my car.
they made the 06 shinka in some standard colors. and as far i know there are only 2 grays galaxy and ti. and ti gray is much darker i beleive and my car has a bluish tone so idk i figured it was galaxy. maybe im an idiot?

 

Geez.....don't be so sensitive......... like I said, I can't help it if you can't recognize when people are (supposedly) being ******** to you when it occurs, and not until months later.

Well, dude.......you did something idiotic, paid the price, luckily you are okay, hopefully you have learned your lesson, but if you start your opening post declaring that you are stupid, don't be shocked that some people will agree with you.

Are you an idiot? I don't know.......its kinda like splitting hairs since you have already told the world that you are stupid. Know what I mean?
