Don't think I ever said I never crashed...
First crash was my bad but the second one was an accident and wasn't my fault.
BMWCCA FTW!
So I guess you rear ended somebody and you hit black ice it seems. Well, dont feel too bad...I mean, do feel bad, but I guess take schadenfreude in knowing that I did you one better, and I'm not allowed to have my car at school any more, nor drive one of my parents' cars unless they are in the passenger seat (this after 4 months of no driving). And no Andy, there was no radar detector in the car this happened in. Just plain old moronic stupidity on my part that won't be happening ever again.
Oh and I and my dad are MBCA, my dad is BMWCCA and PCA. Car clubs of the world unite!

I was going 35-40 in a 55mph and was going around a turn and the back end slid out. I probably hit the telephone pole going 30-35 but it was enough to jam the CV into the diff which IMO totalled it.
Richard- go study, or shoot!
Zac - get to the damn library!
I should shut this thread down. It's detrimental to my customers and my Son.
Bah, I earned some free time. I handed in a paper a couple hours ago, quite good in my opinion. Haven't slept since I woke up 7am on Monday. But you're right, time to read me some John Mueller. If I want any hope of having my car down here for my senior year, I best come home with A's. Oh, and I have a baseball game to shoot at 6 so
Micah Weber: We don't really just post pictures of cars in this thread. Its more of a discussion thread. If you do post pictures, thats great. Just tell us the story behind them.
Dayum, that was like, very moderator like of you, thanks for doing my job for me!
Micah, like the kid said, you have some awesome car photography and you should show it off in one of the shots forums. This is the thread where we smash beer cans against our head. In other words, your great photos are being under-appreciated.

Thanks ya! I should be the moderator of just this thread. Second the motion?
i saw that the other day, gained new respect for you.
24 is good number
I had to come back for this. The only numbers that are worth rooting for:
2, 3 (it will be back, but as long as Jr.'s in the 8 he gets no respect from me), 5, 48, 55, 88, 99...aw what the heck, 24 gets on too just because his ex was such a...well not allowed to say bad words here.
Just curious: what's the most amount of damage (monetarily wise) anybody here has ever done to a car. OK back to work with me.
My daughter drove my 2 month old 2000 Maxima into the back of a pickup truck - $17.5K
The worst I ever did was drive my mother's 1963 Ford staton wagon into a river . . . . . . . . upside down. Long, long time ago . . . . .but they still remember!
I'll say it before anyone else chooses to - the apple doesn't fall far from the tree! I just think it's some kind of karma coming back to seek it's revenge on me.
I knew, of course, that trees and plants had roots, stems, bark, branches and foliage that reached up toward the light. But I was coming to realize that the real magician was light itself.

Um sorry but no. The power struggle between you and your father would be out of control then.
Besides if he shut down this thread you'd just spend more time on those other forums where he couldn't monitor you as well.

If someone sees my car with 24 on it, they may vandalize it if they have something against it. Other #'s may not be as recognizable as 24.
