You get what you deserve. Put yourself in the Legend owner's shoes. What if its their only car and if got FUCKED by some dumbass trying to prove to another dumbass that his car is faster.


NOW.......Let the vultures pick at the bones.

Lesson learned? DUDE, wtf is wrong with you. You could have killed yourself or worse, someone else! Sure, I'm glad you're OK, never like to see someone get hurt, but sometimes people do some really ******* stupid **** and this is one of those cases. If you're gonna or "HAVE" to street race, then go out in the middle of nowhere where nobody drives or parks their cars. This reminds me of the *** who was going 90 down one of the busiest streets (30MPH limit) of Tacoma and then blames the lady in the minivan for getting in his way when he crashes and kills them. -_-

Hey, who hasn't ran a car on a street? Come on now, a show of hands! Yea, most of us have at one time or another. Back in 75 I lost 5 friends because of it, but I don't cuse the ones who do. He learned his lesson I am sure. If I was his dad I would park the car send him to the bone yard for parts and hvae him walk everywhere he needed to go till it was fixed.

Honestly it will not help by busting on him about it. Pick up the pieces, learn, and next time GO TO THE TRACK!

Lets just all take it easy now, I believe he learned a lesson, and hard one. If you guys actually read that other thread, you would of read about his friend. Again my blessings to her.

ok thank you Brianhsval and Anex 570 for understand me..

i guess most of the people here in the forum take everything in FACE VALUE, rather than see an underlying meaning that's suppose to lighten my own matters.

gladys (close friend that died in car accident same day i crashed my FB) was pronounced brain dead since Sunday, and they pulled the respirator on her 4:30am today, monday morning..

Man, I expect your parents have always been disappointed by you!






Doluck,please do your racing on a track,instead of becoming a ******* statistic. Sounds like you have learned enough at this point for a lifetime!

glad you're okay, dude, it's just don't be dumb like that. plus, a bent frame isn't a cheap fix. you learned your lesson, my brother did the same thing. flipped his civic over 3 times... in the mountains... with all the windows open... on a highway... and walked away from it. now he drives a little more conservatively. hopefully your street racing days have taken an indefinite hiatus.

sorry to hear about your friend, also... hey, i just had a thought, george lucas' autobiography "skywalking" has a chapter about when he wrapped an MG or a Triumph or something like that around a tree and the seatbelt broke, which launched him from the car, which actually saved his life. he said if it wasn't for that, he wouldn't be driven enough to be where he is now. i guess all is well that ends well.
