Snow? Rain? Dark? Sleeping? Racing? Act of God?

RIP, little one. Godspeed, and what color interior did you have?

The vultures are upon you. Sorry you wrecked your car.

Seems like a lot people just can't figure out that driving an FD in bad conditions = wrecked FD

ha ha, I just spun out my FC into a ditch due to adding throttle too early in a tight turn on a wet road. My Integra has no power and a lot of understeer, should I have been driving it instead?

This is insane. It took all of one minute for the vultures to start ripping at the flesh of the dead carcass!

Sorry to hear that, man. Hope you are OK!

Sounds like you'll get a salvage tag, look on the brighter side, you can part it out for $$ and buy another one. Parts buyers are already lining up.

SOrry to hear about your loss. Since you are posting, I hope that means that you are ok.

I almost feel like going out and buying another rx7 or two, just to make sure that I have my share!

Wicked sense of humor. Let's hope it's not "stained".
