    Default Flyin Cavy (bballjamal @ a mtn run)

    So my first day checking out the mountain run before I actually bring my car out to run... Met a few cool guys... especially Jamal...

    all was well till Jamal swerves a lil off the road... goes for a bit on grass hits a 2ft wall goes FLYING 3 FEET off the ground... manages to fall back in an empty grass area... breaks off his back bumper and has a radiator leak... my pics sucks (camera phone) but i'm sure COGcaviZ24 will post pictures from an actual camera... Jamal is at COGCaviZ24's shop trying to get his radiator fixed up... sorry i guess i didn't catch your name COGcavi... well it was nice meeting ya'll and i hope you get your car back in one piece Jamal!

    If you were trying to warn any ricers about speeding around the Mtn to a point where they couldn't control it and possibly screw up someone else and/or your crew than I understand where you're coming from. I don't believe we have any of that kind coming with us on this sunday nor next sunday (which I'm hoping stays sunny). Take it easy man!

    If he has done soooooo many "Mtn Runs in a state with 10x more drastic areas than anywhere I've found here yet" how exactly do you miscalculate at a 10x LESS drastic area? Sounds like someone isn't as experienced as they let on to me....

    Then that makes even less sense that you guys were doing it to begin with.

    Another reason why I never go on mountain runs with people on here. Everyone thinks they are a pro.

    Is there ever a beginner group that goes up there to get some experience?

    I dunno, but I would rather see someone admit they are a n00b at it and drive accordingly then be around someone who says they are experienced and ends up like this guy did.

    Go up by yourself. The way to learn your limits and your car isnt necessarily following others, i gained alot of experience by driving in the mtns after school and durin free time by myself

    i can pm you some of the roads that i like. IMO it is better to go with 1 or 2 of your friends. A big group is nothing but trouble unless you are going for a cruise (again IMO).

    Ya man that would be great, I need to get up there sometime. It would be nice to have one or to more people come up also just in case something happens.

    yea by following others you might be tempted to go faster than you actually can handle trying to catch up and then you're fucked.. but eventually you will be going in groups and you might have to catch up at times.. catch up in the straight areas not when it curves so my noob advice is dittoing green..you would be to get the feel for it yourself then practice on finding your limit... I might consider going by myself one day since I saw how it was today...

    Good point I think I'll head up there by myself sometime in the future.

    here is the story.... dipped the right rear tire off and since the grass cambers away and was covered in dew it sucked him down and he was able to straighten out rather than do over that jump sideways and roll his ass into the trees..... BTW how many times have colin macrae, michael schumacher, and nicky lauda crashed.........

    true, 100+mph rally races are exactly like a low speed mtn run in cavaliers, right?

    Ha, I just chuckled a bit that you're comparing some amateur to a pro race driver pushing his car 110% and still maintaining control.

    Sorry to see that your car is fucked up but glad to hear you're alright and the car isnt totaled. Last time I heard a similar story one of my friends slid his WRX halfway down a mudbank and totalled it. A lot of locals up in the mountains will spread gravel and oil on the curves just to force bikers and idiot drivers to slow down.

    I'm not a cavi fan but it still sucks to see someone fuck up their ride when they were at least doing the kind of playing that doesn't put lots of others at risk... Thats how I feel about it anyways...

    Good luck getting your shit fixed.

    There are a lot of idiots on this board........I never said I was a pro driver or anything. Everyone has some slip up or fuck up once in awhile, and this was mine! At that point in time in driving we weren't even really gunning it, more of just cruising down into Helen to grab a bit to eat. Thanks to all of the more mature members of this site who had more concern to the situation! Nice hanging out with ya Lil Paki and Dominic! Nice E30 too!

    Final toll on the car is a blown head, bent radiator support, killed rear bumper, and a slightly bent rear axle. Nothing serious at all for what actually happened and I'm surprised it stayed together as well as it did. Good time all in all!

    The "im better than you" remarks are always the coolest way to win the argument........

    No one ever said they were the ubber greatness at a Mtn Run, I was just notifying the guy who posted in the other thread there's no one coming with a ricer mentality that would put others in danger. You can quote this and make your comments and whatever, but shit happens........plain and simple, get off your high horse of "I drive this car and I'm better" shit because no one cares.......

    and I drive a cavalier........wOOt......

    jokes about that were old 5yrs ago......welcome back to highschool

Thanks to all of the more mature members of this site who had more concern to the situation! Nice hanging out with ya Lil Paki and Dominic! Nice E30 too!

    Final toll on the car is a blown head, bent radiator support, killed rear bumper, and a slightly bent rear axle. Nothing serious at all for what actually happened and I'm surprised it stayed together as well as it did. Good time all in all!
