Rx7 Accidents


Sorry for the **** quality, they were taken with my cell. I was at wal mart before I drove home and bought some sunglasses, thinking: I don't want sun glare to be the reason I wreck my car. And I also passed the camera department, thinking I should also get a disposable like they say in Allstate commercials... Sure enough, I came over that hill to a row of panic stopped cars...
'tis not the first time, either. The night before we got rearended (And nearly broke my neck and impaled by a steel beam) I dreamt about it...
I should start listening to myself more...
My brother died in this first gen I helped pick out for him 10 years ago this month. Multiple traumatic injuries. Good thing there was no passenger as you can see. He was trying to pass a big rig on a two-lane highway. He hit a brand new BMW 5 series. Driver of that car suffered multiple compound fractures but survived. CHP estimated the collision at about 140 mph. He was 22 at the time.

My buddies car who lost it in a long sweeper and hit a light pole @ 50-60mph. He walked away.

I've totaled two myself, an 81 1st gen and a pristine 88 TII. Don't have any pics of those though.

I think he did, there's a thread about it.
It's really sad to se all these wrecked 7's.
I agree, it is sad.
I havent been around for a while but to try to cheer up this thread a little I have some pics of the blue car up and running with a bunch of work. Somehow the same engine I built and ported 2 years ago survived both wrecks.
I'm determined not to wreck my new FC...I stay at least 10 car lengths behind people unless it isn't possibly to do so...I make sure any blind corners or hills I have my foot hovering over the brake, and I fixed a few of my imperfect techniques in the mountains yesterday. So...yeah... I'll kill a puppy if this one gets wrecked.
