If it makes you feel any better my mother-in-law drives a "Champagne Silver Metallic" Cruze.


She's a grandma

Here is the video of the near collision at the autox on Sunday. I had almost the same feeling in my stomach watching it as I did when it happened.

Dafuq?!

Good job Pablo!

^ That was such a lucky break. If that gap weren't there......

 

[THE Phen]

Holy s***, just by watching that I could tell you weren't getting any heat in those tires. WOW!

+1 that gap was the perfect size, the other barriers don't have that much gap between them.

Dat driver mod to release the brakes to steer to the gap then apply brakes again. Whew!

Daves face is hilarious though.

And THAT is why you're the #1 driver and Will will always be #2.

Exactly. Freaking noob broke his axle. Jeez.

I love the sound of your exhaust Ivan

 

[princess peach]

damn dude, that was close

 

[WillD]

Sheesh, I couldn't handle being the best if I had to narrowly avoid concrete barriers.

Thanks buddy! I love it too. I don't think I'll ever change it.

Peaches, it was VERY close. I remember every though that went through my head in that split second. One of them was that there was no way in hell that my car could fit between those barriers. I was wrong.

Has Cara seen this video?

 

[princess peach]

I also remember what went through my mind:

- started to slide: I got this
- spun 90 degrees: s***
- hit the grass: ****...

 

[fishdonotbounce]

Yes Cara has seen this video. She told me she would have been SO mad if I had hit the barriers. Lols

Thanks for sharing!

So, talk about quick turn around... I just got a call that I may have the car back tomorrow. $730 in damage AND, they're replacing the badge that got hit by a rock in Feb. Happy Phen.
