Default ITR0032 is gone

Last night around 11:00 I lost the R to a rollover.I took a turn too fast(while playing with the radio )The rest is ugly,I belive it's totaled.I will post some pictures today when I get back.Please don't flame me about the radio thing..... I was the only person in the car and I walked away without any serious injuries.The EMT said I sould be dead,or at the very least not walking.I jumped right out like nothing happened......I'm just glad to be alive,it's only a car.

Definately be glad you're okay. Rolling over is pretty serious. I bet that if you look at the % of injuries/deaths in all different kinds of accidents, your chances of "jumping right out like nothing happened" are close to the lowest in a rollover. Glad you're okay.

As a new owner of an ITR (2 weeks now) I was thinking about it last night how this car is not made to be very forgiving at the limit. Of course it's limits are much higher than most cars on the road, but still if you push it too far it's not set up to grossly oversteer like every other production car. I plan to take it easy for a while after managing a drift the 2nd day I had it. It will take some getting used to.

sorry to hear that. Looks like we are maintaining our forum pattern of losing 1-2 R's a week. How long before they are all dead?

Good thing you're alright.

About the car, folks, the ITR was produced in limited numbers (as you all know). PLEASE try and keep them on the road, so us poorer folks can own your used ones in a couple of years!!!!!!

Same here. I'm glad to hear you made it out safe.

And, for those discussing the increased likelyhood of injury in a rollover, you are correct. W/ rollovers, you have what are called "multiple impact" collisions that generally cause heavy trauma to the occupants. Often times causing what we firefighters refer to as "injuries incompatible with life". You are very lucky.

I assume you were wearing your seatbelt? Also, did your airbags deploy?
