Evo wreck on 95N

Hey, a co-worker told me he saw an evo wreck on 95N , south of DC. Apparently a BBY evo was going at a good clip on the left lane and the lane got narrower. The guy said that the evo passed him right as he got onto the highway, then further on, he came across evo parts along the left lane before the wreck.. it looked like the car hit a snowdrift on the left and spun into it and the median guardrail. apparently some parts got torn off... Hope it wasnt someone here, and if so, hope theyre ok.

be careful out there.

Damn, I was out in the storm to pick someone up at the airport. Cars were all over the place. I had to take the shoulder to get through because there was a traffic jam of sideways cars at every turn.

Hope it wasn't Chris or anyone else from this site.

huhu...It's times like this that I remember why I put so much energy into leaving the east coast. It was 65 and sunny here yesterday. :P

btw, unless Chris was going out of his way before going to work, he would be nowhere near the south side of DC on 95.

Something I've come to realize......those who own Evo's don't appreciate the power or handling and those who don't have the 'privilege' of owning an Evo, probably woudl take better care of it.

2,323 Evos Down Out of 5000. Almost half-done guys, keep up the good work.

That and the tyres are just not made for snow, worst than my Bridgestone RE040 on the WRX.

What are these numbers? Totalled evos? Where did the numbers come from?

Also, how many were brought in for 2003 and planned for 2004?

Yea, where did you get those numbers? I cannot even start to believe that half of the Evo's sold have been totaled. Our insurance premiums would be straight through the roof, crotch rocket style.

They're Totalled Evo Count. I made them up because it seems like every other day someone wrecks an evo on this site or someone writes about it on this site. Seems like we're into the 2,000's, but it's probably closer to a few hundred.

No clue and no clue. I'm Canadian and a Hoser, we don't even have Evo's because our government keeps them out because of the bumper!!!!

Honestly though someone should count the "crashed my evo/got into an accident with my evo" threads
