instead of turning like I should a have, I kept on going, faster, and hit a turn that was a long 30mph that I had taken plenty of times, but it had just rained that day, and I hadn’t realized it when I was going, thinking I could take it that fast, for I had plenty of times taken the turn at such speed as I was going .

I believe when I entered the turn I was roughly around 78 to 84mph, in between there I'm sure, hit 4th gear and was roughly 4500 47rpm or so, have my lunar series on my driver side dash, its damn accurate, and autometer prolly will always be. therefore I had such a change in vehicles power band to possibly cause "the wheels" to break loose (even though passenger side driven, odd for Honda left hand driven!! driver side much more affective for weight on tranny) and send me right into the ooohhhh 7 to 8 inch curb. mind u my speed reduced from that of above to roughly 42 or so mph for the activity I triiiieddd to perform in order to gain control (i.e. turned the steering wheel back and forth, and tap tap gas and brake considerably, yet moderately. damn, fockin damnnnn

Damage: DRIVER SIDE CONTROL ARM, SNAPPED AT REAR INSIDE ARM, 3/4 ID SAY. Yet thanks to gray name GRey's end links the steering stabilizer held strong and snapped just the arm. replaced arm, Honda oe spec, 53 dollas yi yiii yeaaa
Damage B: alignment nearly aaaawaaalllled.. But thank god salvageable. Wonder how the new tokico blues I had I, did from the accident.
Damage C: Driver side spindle bent completely. I had figured that the control arm was massively ninja'ed, because i've had a snapped arm before for lettin drunk friend drive.... hit curb no drive satinsaiyan no more friend. I figured replace it, get it aligned it should be good.

Conclusion. My apologies for the length yet I hope all shall learn from this marthfocker list of vocab.

From the duration I Took the car to alignment shop, network alignment, driving car felt like shatttt, yes I said shattt. Steering mucho goofy, as if tires pointed out, or that’s what I tried to conclude while driving.

I then assumed it was the way I hit the curb. Slammmed hard at the speed with my wheels turned away from the curb, completely, I know, bad!,

waited to get aligned, bout five hrs, sucked, spent ma day there, garldarnit. just to have them tell me that something else was bent and or damaged. possible the two control arms shot, or shocks damaged or sway bars bent, they's dun know, theys idiots, I didn’t think it was much bent, maybe camber adjustment, and alignment, well. Yeah spindle bent much; with the new tokico blues I got connected. Alignment monkeys didn’t know wat was wrong, so I made a phn call, took it to Ceruttis Automotive, they diagnosed and explained what I aaaaaawaaalllllledd up.
control arm, I replaced, spindle cerutti replaced, new stock stealie with labor, alignment, new bearings on driver side, greased of course, id say whole nine yards job. 462.14. yall think good if so pm me for more info on this custom/certified repair, shop, ceruttis automotive, anyways, that was roughly end of august, and my car now with repairs intact and stock steelies with stock hubs, lolll. And the Tokico blues holdin strong with Neuspeed sports, 1.75 frnt, 1.5, rear. Ride decent but the car does not ride the same since the accident, plus THE WORST OF ALL, I HAD MY RIMS, 17" SPEEDY OCTUPUSES. APPLICATION OF ADR 8 SPOKE WITH DIPED CENTER RIM STYLE, CHECK MY PROFILE FOR PICS; I CAN TAKE AFTER PICS AS WELL,

POINT, SHOCKS HELD UP THROUGH ACCIDENT ALTHOUGH I BELIEVE WITH 12000 MILES ON EM. Damnit good morning
