Fortunately, I haven't been in accident due to reckless street driving (I don't race on the streets), but I do feel sympathetic for him.
I want to share my two cents:
1. Go kart racing ( K1 Speed) - This is a really good alternative to release that urge to race. You will go against some very good drivers in a safe environment who will teach you the meaning of "fast".
2. Any track events (search on google for a local track) - If you would rather test the limits of your car and mods in a responsible manner.
Both of the above suggestions are A LOT cheaper than getting speeding tickets, crashing your car, or medical bills. |
you make a good point. i had made the turn befor just the other day and i knew i could do it i don't know why i was going as fast as my friend but for somereason i was... but yea i had 2 go back 2night just 2 prove 2 my self and i did it just fine no problems once so ever so i don't know what happend last night. but yea i went back to take pictures of our tracks and the terane and first i went around really slow and then i found that i had taken the corner 30mph to fast last night 45 was were the tires screatched around the corner so i was deffinatly being really stupid and well i'm never going 2 do it again. i'll have some more pics up of the damages probably later 2night or tomarrow but as far as on the track u can do the same thing on a track and this place is basically a unofficial track. but yea deffinatly never pushing the limits of my ability as a driver again or pushing the limits of my cars ability 2 see how fast i can do something.
but as far as the damage the part of the frame that the radiator was bent up a little on the drivers side so now my radiator is sitting kinda slanted, my bumper is cracked and a lot of the plastic clips that hold it all togeather underneath were riped out so i'm probably going 2 get a new front bumper and paint it and then my side panel is dented in really bad. i got a friend that used 2 do body work and he is going 2 try 2 fix it if not i am going 2 take it to the body shop and do an insurence claim and have everything fixed right instead of just covering it up w/ the lip kit. so we'll see. thanks for reading
