He is perfectly fine, but his car has some damage. Too bad it would have been a fun drive too.
Funny thing is we were talking about going for a drive for the next meet while we were eating dinner, but decided it wouldn't be a good idea. We figured people would drive too aggressively for their skill, or do something stupid while trying to keep up (not saying either of those is what happened) and crash.
Yeah I kinda had a bad feeling in the back of my mind since none of us knew the road very well. I didn't think it would happen on the first corner though wow. His car isn't in that bad of condition. He broke his brake hub, control arm, and oil cooler but everything else is ok, exhaust still good, no frame rails bent, and even his rims are round!
glad to hear u made it home shane. i head dan (black fc) gave u bad directions. i would've told u the right directions if i made it off the freeway. on the way back my tire exploded...ill take a pic of it tonite

Hahaha...I just thought it'd be weird for 2 guys to go bowl alone.....

You might have to wait until monday, when jay will post it but I can nearly 100% guarantee there will be one next week. Sorry I couldn't make it last week, but I am definitely going to try and make it to the next one. We could go play pool afterwards or something too.
