had a friend get in a 100mph accident in a prelude. It was in comparable shape as that Evo is in. He didn't hit a treet, i just hit a curb, then slid into a guard rail, screwed up the sides of the car pretty bad, but didn't slam into any other vehicles or trees

Well to bad for the Evo, but it is good to know that the interior section of the car was free from to much damage, makes me feel a little safer in mine.....

I am actually going to go to some less performance oriented pads next week (just for street use...i will use OEM pads at the track) for two reasons: 1) cut down on annoying brake dust, and 2) for the reason you mentioned above...the Evo almost stops dangerously quick on the road and I don't want to be rear ended.
wait WHAT??! You would exchange incredible braking ability and the risk that someone would rear end you for poorer braking ability and the increased chance that you would rear end someone else??

Where is the logic in that ? At least when you get rear ended, its not your fault, as opposed to the alternative.

The car might have just been parked, and hit into something. I don't think airbags go off when the car is off.
