Another P5 Taken' Out

Well my day and only car has just been shot to Hell! Time to start lookin' for an EVO8. Think my sponsors will be pissed?! I t-boned a truck this morning on my way to work, by the time I hit him after gettin' on the brakes I was doin' about 35mph. I got hauled-off to the hospital in an ambulance and have ended-up with some major whiplash. Waiting to here from the guys insurance since he's at fault.

Here's some more pics. I thought just the front got damaged but look at my back seat. I'm just really glad my 3 boys and my wife weren't in the car. Notice no airbags deployed either.

damnmm,

sorry to hear that bro!! that was a tight ride you had though. would you like to sell me some of your parts?? springs maybe??
 
ouch! well...as long as you're okay, that's all that really matters. side impacts like that are the worst...and the most unsafe to be in. hope all goes well.

Yeah, I think I'll be alright but I don't know about my ride. Lookin' pretty slim for a recovery. I'll keep you guys posted and let you know about what I can part out. She was looking good, just got back from the N.J. Hot Import Nights show about 3 weeks ago. Can you believe if they total it my wife wants a minivan?!!!! I don't think so!
 
The road I was drivin' on is in a 55mph zone. Kinda like a country road and as I approached this intersection I had the right of way while the road crossing has stop signs. It happened early this morning as the sun was rising and I had the sun to my back. As the guy came to stop he was being blinded and didn't see me coming and proceded to pull out. I hit him on his P.S. front tire and scared the s*** out of him since he had no idea I was even there. He was in a fullsize Dodge Ram 4x4.
 
Dude that's repairable......it won't be a total loss

I'm sorry about what happened though good luck in whatever comes about in this., the Curse continues....
 
I hope she's fixable, I was gonna have her paid off in 4 months. I was in the process of selling my Chevy race engine so I could pull this motor out and get her boosted and put a manuel trans in. We'll see what happens in the next couple of days. Anyways, thanks to everyone here on the Mazda Forum for the support and friendships over the past 3 1/2 years!!!!

This was my car 3 weeks ago at HIN Atlantic City. Some pics the night before detailing the wheelwells and a polish and wax job.
