here is the story.

i suffered a broken ancle and brused kidneys

the numbers from fridays race was still on the windows

[Evosol]

damn, that sucks!

Sounds like a crackwhore was behind the wheel huh?

well, as long as you're still alive, you can always start a new project.

[97GSX]

Sorry to hear....glad you different suffer any life-threatening injuries. Time to start a new project..lol

[Jetblack]

Wow, I am glad we are not reading a very different story. That was right into the driver's side door! Bruised kidneys don't sound very fun at all. Peeing blood for a few days while you mourn your car's demise can't be a good way to spend your weekend.

I think we all feel some of that pain. I am sorry this happened to you. I hope you get justice and I hope both you and the other driver come out ok.

Actually we all just say things like that. We really hope she catches fire in front of everyone else who hates her.

:stupid:

Keep some marshmallows handy, in case she runs into that prayer.

Damn man that sucks glad there was no life threatning injuries. I just frickin raced you Friday. You should atleast get a good settlement from the insurance. She did have insurance correct? If you buy another Camaro look for a 01-02 it will be alot faster than your old one. Hope everything goes well in your recovery

[Orrin's Z]

yeah she did, and yeah i did race and beat you both times lol ^_^

i plan on trying to get a 02 anv ss ^_^

[Ryfly05]

Damn dude, that sucks! I remember racing you a few weeks ago. Crazy how fast things can change. At least you're alright for the most part, and hopefully you come back with a badass car!

[89/00/02TA]

I know you did and now I don't even get another shot at redemption but thats ok atleast you will get something better out of the whole deal hopefully. Don't let that damn insurance company low ball you. When I got hit thats what they tried to do to me. Anyway I am taking it you are pretty much sold on the Camaro huh. You know the Trans Am's and WS6's are a good choice too lol. When you go to buy to avoid those 2.73's again find one with the RPO code GU5 on the drivers side door where the little sticker with all the codes are. Stay away from the GU2 whixh is the 2.73's and if you are not against a 6 speed that would be my first choice if I was you and those have GU6 for a code which would be the 3.42's. Anyway good luck finding a new car and hope to see you back out there in a stock 12 or 13 second car instead of those 14's.

Sucks to hear about that, glad you weren't severly injured, cars can replaced, people not so much.

When their insurance talks to you about the car they are going to really low ball you. Don't even tell them how much you spent on the car initially. Would also be a good thing to find some local adds to show them the value of the car. When my wife was rear ended in our Probe last year they offered us $300. I called BS and they kept saying it had high miles, I went and pulled up other adds on autotrader for the similar amount of miles and ended up with $1.6k out of it.

Glad to hear you weren't hurt too bad! You should buy the car back and fix it onthe cheap if it didnt get much more than the door.

[Jetblack]

Were you able to get out of the car? The door looks like it has been kissed by the jaws of life.

How's the ankle doing? How long does it take for your lower back to stop hurting after bruising your kidneys? Percocet to the rescue.

Bruised kidneys? That's right up there with "twisted testicle". Not a diagnosis you want to hear. As my cousin would say... "Oweeee!"

[Orrin's Z]

she pushed the driver side so far in you can see both tires when you stand in the driver door. the wind pannel is bent in and you can see up in to the rear window from the out side.

The fireman riped the door apart and pulled me out of the car.

My Ankle i go in today to see if i need surgery. the kidneys i have to drink nothing but water for a few days...... no cabonated beverages what so ever......LAME....

[89/00/02TA]

Hey find out from the insurance how much it will cost to keep the car might be ok to keep it and part it out. Also I have a buddy of mine that has a 99 SS that he might be looking to sell if you are interested

[SOMTA]

Also another one to maybe watch...

LS1TECH - What do you think my car would sell for? (http://www.ls1tech.com/forums/showthread.php?t=781024)

Already modded which sometimes could be good or could be bad, depends on what you planned on doing with the car. Doesn't list a price and is low miles so I am sure they are going to be wanting a pretty penny for it.

[Orrin's Z]

find out what your friend wants for his ss.

well they cashed me out on the car.... cuting me a check for 7.3 and they are giving me the car back so if you know anyone that is wanting camaro parts let me know ^_^

[Trannyman]

broken bones equal lots of setlement money! Get your self a good lawyer

[Orrin's Z]

Yeah i lawyered up quickly

[SOMTA]

How goes things? How is the ankle?

[Orrin's Z]
