    Wow, we were up there, at that gas station when you all were there. Three Miatas. We heard about the wreckand all. We saw a bike go off the side of the mountain as well. He didn't have much issues, walked away..limped...it was pretty insane. LOTS OF accidents today up there, glad you are ok.

    No offense to the truck owner, think ive seen it at buckys shop, has a viper motor right? But why on earth would you go on a mtn run with such crappy tires, let alone the rears look bald.

    No, no viper motor. They were gettign bald but they had been doing good still. It wasnt the tires fault. The ass went lite coming out of a turn and that spun them. Any tries would have done it. Just got out from there and there was no coming back.

    Why not? That truck handled just as good as almost any sports car. Just driver error.

    LOL @ all the people asking why would you take a truck to the mountains. Some people really are dumb...some trucks really do handle fairly well. Maybe not as good as ANY sports car, but you never know.

    Didn't you have a lot of suspension and brake upgrades?

    Your right. Maybe it depends on what their definition of a "sportscar" is. If their definition of a "sportscar" is a Honda Civic, than I stand corrected......

    I know it sucks when this stuff happens but now you will be better prepared for the future. You're lucky you're ok.

    ^^ Yeah, I drew a frame of a man running on each fan blade. That is him running at idle

    damnit brian wtf. I had your sticker too...my phone ****in died, but if I would have gone...well you see how smashed the passenger side roof is lol.

    on another note...this truck got beat by ONE vehicle at the autocross event in its class at this past Year One event. that vehicle happened to be a z06 vett with a LOT of upgrades and the sad part was that he pulled the winning run out of his ass because all his other runs were sub par.

    sad to see it go...whats next.....another rt?

    We followed one of the firetrucks up the mountain when it was coming to the scene, but pulled off at the store at Neels Gap to wait it out. Had no idea it was someone off of here. Sorry about your truck man.

    Yes this truck had tons of brake, suspension upgrades.
