one less cym oh no more importantly i hope he lived to drive another day



from http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/rx7/message/108336





Every time I hear someone say "just take 'em in the twisties", I cringe

for two reasons. First, because it's probably the "gayest" thing I've ever

heard a group of supposedly cool people adopt as a standard phrase.

Second, because I know that many of you think you automatically

inherited super-human driving powers by buying your "perfectly-balanced"

cars, but when it comes right down to it, more than likely can't drive well

enough to save your life if an unexpected situation arose. I'm constantly

reading about someone who has bent a rim or wrecked their car because

they spun it on wet pavement or zigged when they should have zagged,

usually on bald tires... and this is what you entrust your life to? Bald

tires

and your driving skills? Remind me never to ride with you.




Thats dead on. Good post.

Fd3BOOST,

Do you happen to have the specifics on any of the cars? Just curious.....in the first group of photos, the top middle black car, and the silver car directly below it both have some unusual, but very similar damage.

Well, it sort of looked like compression forces came from above. The first car looks to be a 99 spec bumper without the reinforcement, so that might make it hard to tell. Either way your right though, the driver's seat probably needed to be shampooed.
