Can't beleive it, another accident!

This can't be true... As some of you might know, I crashed the Rx-7 in the rain, and have since bought a extremly nice Mustang GT. Say what you will about Mustangs, I'll race a lot you you and you can get a good look at the back of one... I bought it and modded it for a straight line, I know no corners.... Today I went and bought new rear tires. Tonight it rains, I drive fine and I get rear ended at a stop light when a F150 hydroplanes into me. I dont know the extent of the damages yet, hopefully just body parts... It seemed to take the 15-20 mph hit pretty good and I launched forward when the impact hit and I got off the brake as to not get pushed off into the ditch. Damnit what luck.

C'mon down here.

Damn dude. That sucks, sorry to hear about that.

I know what;ll make you feel better, come down to VA and visit me. I can show ya at the junk yard a Tan 79/80 that they wheeled in quite recently. Body looked sharp, although I only saw it in the drop off area passing the junk yard. I know at another junk yard under the same management, theres another black 80 although missing parts, but the Tan one hasn't had time to get picked at. Might just need ATF/MMO treatment. I'll treat you to a bottle.

you know what? I hate to admit it but I've converted. In 2003 I'll look at at RX-8, or if a TII ever comes across my way. No 3rd gens. I love the feeling this Mustang gives me. 330 ft/lbs of torque is a great feeling and although I miss the great handling of the 7, it just never could have the ***** this has
