    Default So the S2k had a little accident - Updated Pics on pg. 2

    Yea, coming down Hwy 9 and making a right onto Hembree is a pretty nice turn. The turn is not exactly 90 degrees so it makes for a nice sweep. I've done the turn many times and no problem.

    Well, unfortunately for me tonight, something was different. Don't know if it was debri in the road, or tires weren't warm enough. Anything could have happened.

    I'm coming into the turn, and honestly I have no rememberance of how fast I was going but next thing I know the back end steps out. Normally, I'm able to correct it, which I did. Next thing I know the back end whips back out in the other direction and just takes out from under me. 360's ensue and I'm hopping a curb. THANK GOD the curb was very small. Maybe came off the ground 2-3 inches. I've taken a piece of the lip out on the front driver wheel, and a small dent on the back drivers wheel. Passenger side is just fine. Twin was with me and he drove the car home. Everything felt fine except for the alignment of course. No shaking, no noises. Two new wheels and an alignment later I should be fine again.

    Yes, it could have been A LOT worse. A LOT! Thanks for Chuck and Brandi who were following me, at least it helped calm us down a bit. Of course, I'm going to be Mike twin's bitch for awhile since he'll be helping me get the car back in shape again. Couldn't do it without him.

    SHIT HAPPENS PEOPLE! BE CAREFUL!
