Meet Accident

So as you all saw, my car got hit pretty good today leaving the meet. I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who stopped and helped out (calling the cops, first aid, pictures, and especially the ride home ).


Really sucks, but both drivers are fine and thats all that matters. Now just the fun of dealing with insurance for the first time. Anyone know a trust worthy auto shop in orlando??

Ya, he was driving the car through the corner pretty fast (through the stop sign). I was hit before even reaching the intersection in my lane. Sucks, but there was no way in hell I could have avoided that. There is a good 100 pictures to sort through, so ill append to the top soon.

We all heard about it right after it happened. I'm glad no one was hurt. Stinks that someone's actions wrecked your car.

Totaled...judging from just those pics alone, there's just too much frame damage. I didn't see it but I heard about it and there's no excuse for what happened.

Sorry you had to experience this today.

There guy wasnt driving is own car :\ Not sure about the owner, he was filming (jarred).

As much as I wish they would say its totaled, i doubt they will. The car can still start and be moved (just leaked all of its fluids and runs very poorly). Cant open driver side door > 20%
