It was around 11-12 at night and we (as in my buddy in a black EG coupe and another buddy in a EF hatch and me in my CRX) were being stupid. I was going about 110-115mph on a 2 lane road with cement walls on both sides. I lost control on a curve and the it was cement pavement so it was alot more slicker. I hit the wall on the right and bounced of it then hit the left wall. Somehow the left side of my car rode up on the left wall, leaving me on two wheels. I was so disoriented that I didn't even know I was tilted until I felt the car land on all fours. I was still going and then I jumped the curb that was after the cement walls. I stopped about 50ft away from the last hit. Luckily it was grass that I landed on. Oh yeah, did I mention that my buddies in a EG coupe doing about the just about lost it too. The whole time during the accident, all I could do was look straight out through my windshield. My friends told me that when I rode up the left wall, I made a crap load of sparks fly because of my rims scraping against the wall. I still couldn't believe I made it alive and unhurt. I was lucky that my car didn't roll or that I missed the 20ft drop which I would've rolled down and bursted into flames, and if I didn't burst, I wouldve landed right on the railroad tracks next to the road, which about not even a minute after the car stopped, a train came by. I got the best result out of a million that could've came out of that situation. About 20 people ran over to me to see if I was alright. A guy gave me ten dollars and said that it isn't much, but enough to buy me a meal. Later on, I came up with this philosphy..."Your life is like a $10 bill, it could be spent in a second" It was kind of funny, the first thing that I said when I got out of my car was "Arghh...my f*cking car!!!"...didn't even realize that I could've lost more than that. Well, I hope this story reminds people why we have speed limits and not be such a dumbass as I was. Now I have a totaled CRX...but I have my life to show for it though. My next car is probably gonna be either a EF hatch or an EG four door EX...with a sticker on the side window that says "Leave it at the track"...My life was my car...she was my everything...now gone away...argHhh...

...Oh yea, sorry, no parts for sale...

 

No offence pal, but your about as smart as that CRXStreetRacer person. Street racing is illegal and dangerous. Sorry about you CRX, I hope I never feel pain like that. Ouch!

 

that was stupid, you're lucky u didn't get hurt

 

All I got to say is, another street racer down.

 

i hate to say that or put it that way, but 'tis true.

 

sorry to hear about your ride...glad ur alright tho.....slow it down a little....

 

As much as I empathize with you for the loss of your crx (I too know the pain):

<U>KEEP IT TO THE TRACK!!!! </U>

 

video?

 

Sorry for the bad news, hope you your luck gets better

 

Streetracing is something you do by yourself on deserted roads off which you can dream every curve.. Don't race your buddies on the street you found out what can happen by judgement error in a split second..
