Default Another EM1 down.... EBP Si front end damage

::::::::::UPDATE on the 3rd page.......:::::::::::

These are getting more rare everyday....

Quiet Monday night. After playing pool for a couple hours with some female acquaintances. My friend and I are invited back to their place. After awhile, we decide to leave so my friend can catch a flight leaving at 6am. So at 4:30 we depart and follow one of the girls to the highway since we are not from the area.

The town they lived in couldn't have been farther away from civilization. Anyway, we follow this girl through the screwy *** roads, and come upon a hill with a sharp turn which I did not see because it was 4:30 in the morning and It was negative nipples outside.

So I see this turn, and try to take it as best I can without spinning out of control. Obviously I was unable to stop that from happening. We go sideways about 100 feet down the hill. I tried to compensate for the slide, but the steel guard rail got the best of me, and these pictures are whats left of my baby.

I don't know if I want to tell it again... Lets just say it was bad luck, a curvy backwards *** road in the country, and they put entirely to much sand on the road.

.... It will most likely get fixed by a friend so I can make some money off of this. Then it will get traded in for another project. I could be pissed about this but I'm just thankful my friend and I are still walking, and we were not hurt at all. Even though we were only going 40mph, It coulda been alot worse. Not everyone can get out of their car and laugh about it like I did.
