You should never get out of your car in instances like this. By the way, what day was this? Glad to see you were okay

Damn son.

Glad your OK. Nice reaction, going all the way over to the left, definitely saved you and the car.

Also happy to see the Evo's damage was minimal.


After all the advice we've been throwing back and forth I would have been sad to see her totaled or you hurt.

Go have a beer and sit back for a bit!

Nice save.
