On top of the speeding ticket my car got some damage.
Driving home from parents to gfs. Some truck two cars ahead of me accindentally equipement fell off on the road at 50mph. The cars ahead of me were suv so no problem for them but i didn't see it coming. And when i slam on the brakes. I almost slowed down to a halt but the blue subaru behind me would of nailed me in the *** hard. So i went over the objects. It wasn't so bad except for the big *** Steel pulley ( if you know what mean, used in contruction to lift heavy stuff) went underneath my car. It didnt' sound good going over it since the chassis was just rolling over it.
THe damage, a broken speedo cable. The man was driving the truck was sorry and is going to pay for what ever need replacing.
I was able to get the car to a lift and see the damage. Basically one of the pipes got dented on my N1 duals but the chassis got afew dents, including a big *** one right below but in front of mthe front sit. you could feel the huge bulge inside.
It was close to the fuel rails and brake lines but everything is ok. My father took a heavy hammer and was able to bend down the floor chassis to near normal. Notting really i can do to fix that to original.
What a week. I'm out of speedo right now. I'll have a new line tuesday and the guy will pay. I'm glad it didnt' hurt my IC, radiators that would of cost him a lot of money.
