Number Tew Posted May 26, 2013 Report Share Posted May 26, 2013 Worst nightmare came true tonight. Before anyone asks, everyone involved was fine, just pretty sore. Walked outside, saw it in the day light, and really started crying, and I don't do that much. Basically, there is discrepancy as to whether she ran the light or if I did. I got the ticket, although she was speeding, admittedly. I have two witnesses, one behind me (@Tally_4.6) and one in car (it was like my third date with her) but their statements were not taken. We had a second follower, but he left because highway patrol took too long to get there. I know that light was green, even if it was only green as I approached it. However it's a 5 second yellow, no matter what happened, I would have made it through before the other light turned green. She should have been slowing down for a stop, but didn't. Clipped me at about 60. This thread is useless without pictures. Let me go cry now At the scene Hard to tell in the first picture, but she drug me through the intersection, then went on to hit a pole on the other side. My first reaction was to get her and her child out of the car. Regardless of how dearly I loved this thing, most important thing was making sure everyone was ok.

95riosnake Posted May 26, 2013 Report Share Posted May 26, 2013 Dear god man, so sorry to see this! I hope justice is served to the dumb bitch, probably my favorite sixxer of all time, just terrible to see it destroyed like that. Had she hit you differently goin 60 you might not still be with us, glad to hear you're ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knuckles Posted May 26, 2013 Report Share Posted May 26, 2013 wow, after seeing what this thread really is about I wish it would have been what my first thought when i read the name of the thread and thats that you had thrown a rod or something. As stated above brother cars come and go, your life is more valuable than any car. Its very honorable of you to go get the woman and child out of the car or help. I sincerely out of the bottom of my heart hope you find some peace with it. I also hope you continue on to bigger and better things. Again the important part is you are ok brother, good luck.Knuckles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your health and the health of everyone else involved is the priority. Cars will come and go, people won't. You'll get yourself into something else, I wouldn't be worried about that. Just take your time and appreciate the fact that you're still able to tell us this story. RIP to your car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Number Tew Posted May 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2013 All the comments really help guys. I appreciate the love, so so much. This is what the car community is all about, especially tight knit crowds like us. Drake, they will probably make me send it to the crusher, the whole thing is tweaked. My buddy and I both think the SFC's really helped stabilize the car though. I'm so thankful to be alive. This event really shook me.

Number Tew Posted May 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2013 No, she was in an 05 V6 mustang. We estimate they will try giving me about 4k, luckily I have everything very well documented as far as receipts go for all the engine work. The drive train had 20k on it. brakes about 16k. Car was not your regular old 212k mile 99 v6. I just have to prove that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schiffy Posted May 27, 2013 Report Share Posted May 27, 2013 Buy it back from insurance for cheap and do a swap into another sixxer when it's all said and done. I hate this one has to go, but repairing that front end damage... That would be rough. How you feeling now that's its been a couple days? Hurting? Stiff?Tapatalk made me do it!

As far as me, I'm a little sore, but it's not so bad. I'll go get checked out if it doesn't clear up soon.Oh my gawd... So sorry to see this man...

Number Tew Posted May 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2013 That's what I told him. I said "Alright, let me park your car in the middle of an intersection, and plow into and total it, then I can run up and say 'man that bitch ass thing was gay faggot. At least now you and your small penis can get something not super gay like that, and get something like a ford GT'" He failed to see how my argument was anywhere near what his was, as he was calling me a "bitch ass faggot" for driving a v6.
