Default Good Friend Nearly Killed In A Crash. (pics) - 08-25-2006, 11:29 PM

(Also Posted over @ 92bengals)


Well.. His project car is gone, his b16a2 EG6 hatch = no more. I was right behind him and we were driving on an open country S bend as we always do and then it happens out of no where, an animal of a decent size (little smaller then a deer) pops out as we are about to hit a S shaped turn in the road, my buddy quickly adjusts and swerves the deer, and regaining control doing about 120km/hr, BUT then his front wheel catches some weak ashphalt and the road crumbles (literally chunks of ashphalt shoot up in the air), his back end slides out about 3 feet from this, his back tire catches the dirt and he loses control, the car swerves and fish hooks into the guard rail and flips rolling down a 15 foot drop/ steep hill) the car snapped 3 solid wooden beams as it goes down and lands on its roof. I was about 300 + meters behind him at the time. I almost instantly stop my car, throw on my 4 ways and jump down into the ditch/ ravine.. I am screaming for my good buddy hoping he is alive and nothing is wrong, I mean this is my best freind and this crash looked as if his number could be up... I call his name, then the car shuts off and he yells to me that he is ok, he gets out with a stiff neck and a cut elbow. The car.. Well as you can see is a complete body loss.

We ended up towing the car about 1km down the road to my buddys house and ended up tearing it apart, had it stripped in 3 hours flat, motor out ! suspension out ! Interior out ! Tail lights and headlights out as well. we basicly gutted the car, then removed the vins and cut the car to peices and dumped the scrap. The motro still runs like a champ, in mint condition. The oilpan did not even have any dents in it.


I have never felt such relief in my life when my buddy called back to me and got out ok, I felt really good at that point. AND to anyone about to call this car rice, please refrain from doing so. It had full bars all around (strut tower + sway), lowered suspension (eibach sportlines + AGX's), and good summer tires on. we have taken this turn FASTER many many times before, but a freak of nature event just made it nearly lethal.


Pictures of the car.

Engine was still great. WHICH was what we were most concerned about after finding out my buddy was ok.
