Wow, sorry to hear about your Evo (but certainly glad insurance has you covered lol). My parking brake is also finicky; I have to really lift that sucker when I'm on any kind of incline.


Glad you're alright!

Sorry to hear about your evo. Everytime I parked in an inclined, I always wait for my turbo timer to shut my car down then put it in gear (Of course w/ E-brake engaged also). I know this sounds ridiculous but I always want to be sure that it doesnt go somewhere else when I get back. Atleast you got some good cash out of it from your insurance.

Dude, what road around here leads right into a lake? I am definitely staying off that one.

G/L with the new purchase.

Those pictures are hard to look at. I'm not sure what I would do if I saw my Evo rolling into a lake That's awesome that your insurance gave you $22k though

should buy it back... drop a new engine in her, let her dry out a bit and have her steam cleaned and you should make about 10k id imagine

The way you typed your story was hilarious. Thanks for the chuckle! I'm glad you're ok and got a nice chunk of change!

I would wait on that SST though. Nobody really knows how much power that thing can handle.

Thanks guys and I don't care what people think the SST can take.... I want one and will only be doing lights mods for a while anyways. I'll sit back and let others try it first then go from there on the do's and don'ts with the SST.

Too much hassle to deal with buying it back for me.

And your welcome for the chuckle!

And this happened in Chattanooga not Atlanta
