gaowners32 · 11-16-2005, 02:42 PM

ouch? what the **** where you doing going over 100mph to do that?

with in the same minute 3 people posted

Braves299 · 11-16-2005, 02:42 PM

What exactly happened?

Rich · 11-16-2005, 02:45 PM

thatll buff right out.

so im guessing its totalled.

Landon · 11-16-2005, 02:46 PM

~~I was racing at 4:00 in the morning, That didnt happen while we were racing, but right after.~~ A car cut me like off 2 ft in front of me, I hit the brake and went into the next lane at the same time, and lost control, and voila!, fully modded GAGT. I would have hit the guy and prolly killed him if I hadnt done that, but me being nice, and the guy left. Only going 65 - 75 MPH at the time of impact.

Landon · 11-16-2005, 02:47 PM

I tried buffing it, but there are still a few chips in the paint you can see.

Landon · 11-16-2005, 02:48 PM

and the battery split into 5 pieces.

Rba007 · 11-16-2005, 02:48 PM

Glad youre alright, sorry to hear bout the car.

But, this is what cars do when they dont like lime green and orange together. Kinda a way for a car to kill itself rather than be ridiculed by the other cars.

Braves299 · 11-16-2005, 02:49 PM

Congrats then

Landon · 11-16-2005, 02:52 PM

Actually, Every single person said they though green and orange would not go good together, and they see it in person and they cant stop saying how awesome it looks. Ive won 50$ off of betting with people who thought that it would look crappy and then they see it and dont say anything, just hand over the money. Also, Got two black eyes, 15 stitches in my ear, cut on the top of my head, and misc scratches all over my right arm. I wasnt wearing ym seatbelt, and after the crash i ended up in the backseat of my car on the passenger side

Gizm0815 · 11-16-2005, 02:53 PM

a little bondo and fiberglass and itll be fine.

Landon · 11-16-2005, 02:54 PM

Ill admit in the picture the green and orange arent a good combination, but in person its a diiferent story, it looks sweet in person, or did at least....

Mike Jung · 11-16-2005, 02:57 PM

Glad you are ok.
(& always wear your seat belt!)

Who says the GA is bad in frontal impacts.
(Suppose to be kinda bad in the frontal offset crash testing.)
It looks like the passenger interior area held up good (not crumpled into).

Sometimes it is better to hit the vehicle in front of you (that is going the same direction as you, less impact speed difference), than hitting stationary objects.
But it is hard to make that type of call, when it happens in front of you.

Another good reason to have an 'AGM' type battery, like an Optima RedTop / YellowTop.
(No battery acid to spill out.)

bu01 · 11-16-2005, 03:03 PM

what did the cops tell you

Landon · 11-16-2005, 03:03 PM

My battery was a die hard. And yes. It was a tough call, I thought I did the right thing considering the time I had to decide, a split second. And its impossible to tell what you are going to do until the time arrives. I have a picture of the interior. In my book the GAGT has superior crash ratings, It held up exceptionally. And oh yah, the air bad did not deploy.

Landon · 11-16-2005, 03:06 PM

I didnt get a chance to talk to the cops at the scence, the ambulence took me away (I didnt really have any choice) I just went to the police station later to get the time that I need to go to court, and they didnt really say anythign to me then. The accident happened at 4:45 am, and I didnt get to the police station until that night when their were all different cops on staff.
