on jan 4th, saturday night, around 11:00, my friend and I visited another friend of mine who just had his vafc tuned. he's got a b18c5 in an EG HB, gutted to the bone.
He let me drive his car to see how smooth his powerband was after the tune. My friend's sitting in the back with no backseats. 1st....2nd....3rd....4th...tires chirped in every shift. going about 100 or so, and i see a turn coming up. All the sudden the road started going downhills as I am turning in, I feel the whole car flying, before I knew it all hell broke out, started spinning and we back ended a power pole. my friend whom was originally was in the passenger seat had flew to the back with his head bleeding and eyes closed, the other friend whom was originally in the back was all also bleeding everywhere. Since there were no backseats he was scrathed everywhere by the bare metal. we were EXTREMELY stupid for not wearing seat belts. My first reaction was to take them to the hospital, so I started running to my friend's house to get my car, which was about half a mile down the street. With the adrenaline kicking I made it all the way running as fast as I could, and by the time I got back to the scene the ambulances had arrived. They were both taken to the hospital and one of my friend got 3 staples to the side of his head and the other, who was in the back, had 32 stiches on the top of his head and his back was scratched up really bad from the little metal thing sticking out in the back that holds the seat in place. I myself got 4 stiches in the chin and got little scratches from the glass on my scalp.
This is the third totaled accident that I've been in. The first was when I flipped my 1 month old GSR cuz of some truck, second was a G20 that got T-boned by a car going about 60 (and kept going after it hit us cuz we heard the tires peeling). The turn itself looks like ) and the posted speed limit was 45. I am thinking the reason that we flew was because the car was so light and there wasn't enough downforce (maybe canards and wings DO make a difference.....in some cases).
I am just really glad that all of us are alive. If we had hit the pole any other way all of us would of died. And I got out of the accident being hurt the least. My friend isn't TOO sad because the engine's completely fine and insurance would give him back like 1-2K for the car. I told the police officer that there was an accord coming in our lane and I just jerked it too hard to try to avoid it. I am going to the police headquarters tomorrow to get my license back, don't know if he believes my story though.
please drive carefully everyone, I don't know anything else to say, I'm going to sell my EK and get a FF TT (well...maybe 4wd), got really lucky this time and should treasure my life more.
