R.I.P. My Baby.........Good Times

[o.g.sk8er]

Hope this clears this up for you. These skid marks are more than 50 to 60 feet long. He was going at least 40 to 50mph. I don't care how hard you swerve a MP3 or MSP at "20 to 25mph", you WILL NOT lose control like that. I owned an MP3 and trust me, it would not lose control at that slow of a speed.

Open your eyes moron. think like an investigator for a second. Look at the road, look at the back ground scenery. You can see how curvy the road is and in the background you can even see how the road ahead makes a sharp turn around another corner. He was trying to be a rally car driver. He wasn't as good as he thought. And he and his car paid for it. Hopefully he learned a lesson. And thankfully there wasn't another lane where another driver could have been.

Anywayz....

You are dumb. Go get in your car right now. Drive down the street at 25mph. Mash your brakes as hard as you can. Get out of the car with a handy dandy tape measurer. Measure the skid marks. They will not be any longer than 10 to 15 feet. Probably not even that much. Don't question me about physics, I will make you look very dumb.

you know what! im not going to turn this post into a flame ....YOU WERENT THERE.... SO HOW THE HELL DO YOU KNOW HOW LONG THE SKID MARK'S ARE???? by pic's?? ya, i said nothing about physics buddy. please you think your above me? right!
you can call me dumb all you want, but atleast im not making the dumb ass post calling someone a lair.

I don't have to try to make you look dumb with spelling like that.

Besides, crime scene investigators aren't at the scene while a crime is happening. Should a jury declare the offender innocent just because the investigator that solved the crime wasn't there when it happened? Try not to be so stupid. You are making it too easy for me to make you look dumb.

come on man..... everyone does it. it called typing really fast.

Dr. Sound: What an unbelievable fall! My first thought when I saw your pics was how little damage was on the MSP (course that was just the front). I'm glad I got that pic of your car w/Spicy's a couple weeks ago! You were definitely being watched over that day. I am glad to see that you are safe. That is a mind boggling fall and for you and the car to be in such good shape is nothing short of a miracle. Take care.

I hate to look stupid by misspelling a bunch of words. If yo look at 80% of my posts, they have been edited because I go back to make corrections so I won't look dumb. I'm just telling you what I am observing here.

I see skid marks that are a minimum of 50 feet long. I see a guy that looks like he is about 6' tall. Use his height to approximate the length of skid marks. I see in the foreground a one lane road with a sharp right turn. I see the way the road hugs the mountain in the background. I see other photos of a young guy with his young friends making "peace" signs like this is all cool and it's not a big deal.

What does all this spell out to me? What the hell do you think. Use your brain.

Ok, I'll stop playing with you now since you are getting upset over this.

Ok...I don't want to sound one sided here, but...

Those marks are around 45'. I would not put them over 15 yards. They are also, not from braking...they are from the tires folding and him still plowing forward. Otherwise there would have been ABS type marks...spotty, you know? Had he hit the gas, he may have made the turn. However, for him to have to have been turning and cause a skid mark that long, he knew the turn was there...otherwise you'd see a shorter mark, and probably a lower rate of survival. Something must have obstructed him, but he was probably going more like 30-35 (40 tops) for it to drag that far on a scrubbed turn. That's my best guess.

And Ben...your older posts were helpful, but lately you're just a real b****. A dose of reality is always appreciated, but perhaps the word TACT is missing in that magical spell checker of yours. Please look it up at dictionary.com, and use it more frequently.

My thoughts exactly.

I don't have any tact. I am very blunt and I say what I am thinking. Yeah it offends some people that are soft, but I really don't care either. People that know me personally know that most of the time I am kidding and that I have a sarcastic type of personallity. But personalities don't convey over the internet.

We all misspell and have typos (especially, it seems, when correcting ourselves). Everybody does it. It's no big deal and I don't think it should, to an extent, be used as a gauge of someone's intelligence. Especially if you don't know that person personally.

Also, when YOU flip 15x down 350 feet into a ravine and live to tell about it I HOPE someone shows you sympathy. Because you certainly don't for anyone else. Otherwise leave it alone and for pete's sake stop flaming left and right. It's getting trite.

Hey Victor, just curious, did you replace your horribly cracked winshield before this accident? If not then look on the bright side -- you just saved $250 cuz now you need a lot more than just a windshield!

Im with Big Ben on this one. They were racing. Tried to push the car too hard. Lost it. Rear wheel drive might have been different, but the MSP is FWD. And when you try to gas it through the corner too fast. The car follows where the nose is pointing. Off the side of the ledge. Perhaps to embarrased to admit he totalled his car while trying to be an amatuer race car driver? Who knows. But a Deer? Why not a moose, or a snake, or squirrel??? pffff I woulda tagged any deer on that road, considering there are no guard rails. My 2. cents. Peace

Dr. Sound:

What about the MOTOR? TRANNY, ECU?, OTHER GOODIES?

If it is a write off, buy it back and sell me stuff.

Yeah I think I would've opted to take my chances with the deer than that hill. But you can say what you "would" do all you want until you are in that situation. Sometimes gut reactions take over common sense.
