It'll buff out...

Someone was watching over you that day. Look at all the damage yet the driver's door and roof are in pretty good shape. Did you hit a pole in midair? The back of that thing is really messed up.

It was stock long block, SAFC, 780's, GT32, Tial 38mm W/G, Dejon Race FMIC, ACT 2600, Injen Intake cut, 3in TBE. I didnt hit anything, thats from the car rolling 5 times. It ripped the rear pass wheel and axle completely off the car.

Had a friend do the same thing. He rolled his Mustang at about 120. Landed in a cornfield and didn't take a corn down on the way in. Not a straight part left on that car. Miracle you both survived. He managed to get out and walk away from that, then started collecting parts from the road while he waited on the sherrif and a tow truck.

I rolled a 1963 MGB Roadster into a beanfield, going about 50 mph, fell asleep for a second and then over-corrected. The front seats were not bolted in and they rolled sideways as the car rolled, watching the windshield crack looked like lightning. Crawled out upside down and flagged down a ride home. Came back to a tow truck and a Sherriff looking for a body.
Also got blown up in a gasoline fire a few years later, when it's your time, it's your time.

Maybe you should just stay away from anything dangerous....

Sadly, I was there. My stock 91 RS couldn't keep up so I decided to just cruise on. Then saw our roommate had turned around and was wondering wtf is going on? Then got the phone call. "Derek just rolled his car!".

We turned around and saw the car upsidedown and smoking, missing a wheel. Derek was NOT in the car. I then begun to backtrack and trace the accident.

He lost control just after a bridge on some sand/gravel that the wind has so kindly deposited there. The car did a slow sideways reverse drift into the ditch. Once the car reached the bottom, the wheels dug in and flipped the car. The car didn't touch the ground again for about 50-60 yards (witnesses said they saw his car fly OVER them as they were driving by). It then landed nose first slightly to the drivers side and carved a quite nice crater out of the ground (Derek is ejected from the car here, thru the only open window.) the car then rolls and tumbles for another 100 yards or so and comes to rest upside down.

Managed to find his shoes that he was wearing near the first impact and tracing the direction went into the woods. Found him lying semi conscious between 2 massive trees that he managed to squeeze thru. I covered him up and waited for help (I'm not an EMT, but I know NOT to move someone). A couple months of driving 100 miles a day to check up on him. He had a severe concussion, broken toes and a couple fractured ribs. The concussion being the worst part. Still don't remember the details eh Derek?

Found the broken wheel in the woods, FMIC was about 100 feet into the woods, a new Craftsmen tool set was scattered everywhere. The wreckage and debris were about 1/4 mile long. Found most of the tools, cell phone, and all the parts. But, pretty much everything was destroyed or unusable.

Yet, you could still operate the seats, open and close the driver's door just fine, etc. True testiment to the safety built in these days.

And you never have seen a man in a hospital bed with a tube down his throat looking more horrible until you show him pictures of his wrecked baby. BTW, it had only what? 36k miles on the car?

I'm glad we got you thru it.

Semper Fidelis,

Wiz
