You may want to reconsider the next time you speed, drive recklessly or even think about driving while impaired. The links offer a true testimony of the outcome when poor driving judgment is exercised. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]
PLEASE DRIVE SAFELY, especially during this Holiday Season.

WOW WOW that does not look like fun right there. He is really lucky to be alive. That is a trip I would not want to do again. Glad to hear he lived through it

Hey guys, I see you stumbled upon my site and the unfortunate demise of my civic.

Regardless of how many times you've done it, whether it be street racing, tearing up your favorite back roads or whatever the situation may be, things can happen. Although I had hit that near fatal turn hundreds of times before at speeds greater than I did that night, something was different and the outcome is on those pages. One slight oversight nearly cost me my life. If my mistake can help others out, then my effort to relay my message was not a waste.

As far as my civic was concerned, you can see the list of mods that I had done to the car here: My old civic I had done quite a bit to the car. I was able to salvage just about anything that was worth money. I salvaged my complete engine setup (engine trans, axels, ecu, shift linkage) all of my brakes, (rotors, pads, lines) and plenty of other parts. I was actually able to salvage the wheels and tires and sold them to a guy I know. I'm in the process of putting the engine back together and dropping it into my '94 Si hatch.

Again, please be careful. You can have fun at lower speeds. Trying to beat your last best time home is a fruitless effort.
