Ok well i was cruising the deerfoot today at about 3:00. I was just crusing about 120-130kph getting ready to turn off at my exit. I noticed a brand new m3 BMW in the fast lane and didnt think anything about it. But he came in my lane and slammed his brakes. I put my brakes on but didnt fully stomp on it, he came with in 5 feet from my car and i turned the wheel slightly to the left. As i did that my backend kicked out and i went straight into the guard rail. I hit it 4 times before stopping. I knew that i needed to get off this main road, so i started the car and drove off to the side. when i first hit where my 4 point harness was mounted the bolt snapped. Then i smacked my head on the steering wheel when i hit again and got thrown around after the next 2 times. Im pretty sad that my baby is gone but im more happy to have my life.



















This is where i hit the wall

that really sucks man!! glad you are ok. i see you or a friend have another rex
it looks fixable...
are you going to repair, part it out or swap over to another car??

 

This car is my pride and joy i cant part it to much time i spent in it to just sell to someone else. I am going to save enough cash to get her fixed.

 

do you like the body kit??? or is that how you bought it and said the hell with it. that sucks, sucks to see another soldier down.

 

good man
i would do the same

glad ur okay and sucks about the ca, but next time around proper safety equipment should be key...it doesnt look like you have a roll cage.Harnesses should only be mounted to a roll cage...ur lucky u walked away

 

On the bright side the BMW driver probably finished her cell phone conversation.

 

only if your car had abs!

u will find another car hope your back and head heals. don't stress **** happens I nearly got killed on my last accident.

to recovery

 

man thats crazy, but you can always bring your rex back to life, on the other hand you cant rise from the dead good thing your ok no homo

 

wow what a douche in the bmw. Good thing to hear your ok. Thats was a sexy looking rex :X.

Yeah please tell me you meant kilometers per hour and not miles per hour... If you meant miles, well, i hope you learned your lesson. And ill echo what someone else said, dont use a harness unless you have a properly mounted roll cage or at the very least have the bar welded to the frame seperately. That bar could have come and bashed the back of your head in.

Sucks about the car though man, even with the body kit it looks like it was pretty clean. And glad youre ok too.

x 10000. I hate those wussy 2" Tuner belts companies like Sparco and Schroth get away with selling

Haha!

 

I'm glad your ok. 75mph is not that fast but you have to be careful in these little tin cars we drive.

 

Glad your ok! Next time...proper safety equip Please change your original post to read 120-130 KM...your gonna get flamed by those who fail at reading comprehension and critical thinking

 

sucks i hate the deerfoot will insurance help you out?
