My Smash On Beach Rd :(

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

ok so i was driving down beach rd last night to pick up my g/f after work (10:30pm)

as i were passing the bp in elwood some drug f**ked idiot in a wrx was leaning out of the back window trying to grab at my car.

he had his whole upper body and both arms out of the car.

i swerved to the right a little to miss him (driving at about 30kph) and obviously i am looking in his direction.

at the same time some other f**kwit has got in the middle of both lanes about 3 cars in front of me and slammed on his breaks to stop both lanes of traffic so everyone can watch him drop a burnout.

the x5 in front of me hit the anchors and i went under him!

with all the sand on the road my car just slid, there is not evena skidmark although the brakes were locked...

damage to x5 - scrach on bumper and ding in panel under bumper

damage to the skyline - busted frontbar (f/g 400r), headlight, bonnet, front right quater, radiator, rad support, washer bottle, reo bar and that's all i could see as i cant open the bonnet at this stage.

as far as i can tell anything structural or suspension was untouched.

the motor is fine aswell as the car was so high (and mine so low) that it just slid underneath untouched

the car got towed to spencer panels and shannons are looking after it now...

just gotta prey its not a writeoff

cross your fingers for me

[R32_GODZILLA]

Damn that's bad luck right there - I would've been furious and started tearing heads off those fckwits! I was there lest night, i think i left at 10:30 from the car park where waterfront restaurant is. Too many idiots there for my liking.

Gutted for ya.

[shepo]

thats nasty!

hope everything works out for you mate.

[Wheezy]

That is shit house mate.....

There is always wankers on Beach road it is not even worth going along there.

I hope your car isn't a write off, but from the sounds of it repairs are not out of the question

[KezR33]

Did you get much trouble from the police or anything (did they even turn up)? I remember when my mate stacked his 33 due to negligence and nothing more the cops gave him the hardest time about it. Breath test, drug test, a million and one questions, etc. In the end he was charged with careless driving, which I suppose is true but if it had been a mum in a Honda Odyssey or something they would've just let her go.

Anyway, sorry to hear about your car.

Sorry too hear dude. so many f**kwits around St Kilda last night... Why wont they f**k off back to chapel st.

[The Bogan]

Sorry to hear.

Did you get photos of the sand on the road as this may help if they try to get you for neg driving, i dropped my bike once at a round about because of a diesel spill, the bike slid and hit a car, cops were called, i got booked for neg driving, cop said it was speed and dangerous driving even though he wasn't there when it happened, the guy i hit was cool and took lots of photos at the scene and also wrote a statement stating what he saw, went to court and got fine dropped because you could clearly see the dieso on the road. Might even help keep your no claim bonus as the fault was not really yours as others instigated the accident.

I now always have a camera in my car.

[DogKnight]

Sorry to hear that mate. Such an awesome looking car too.

It really blows in these situations where idiots on the road can cause you to be in an accident but it ends up being your fault as you hit the other driver from behind. I was caught in a similar situation with my das old car when I first started driving. Really sucks.

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

cops weren't anywhere to be seen... so no charges...

i'm just so f**king gutted atm... it took 2 years and a lot of money to get that car to where it was...

the worst part is waiting for the assessor to get back to me on whether they are going to repair the car or not...

[Al]

Shit man, sorry to hear!!

Such an awesome looking 33 too, with some good power too. Hopefully she'll be back on the road again, better than ever.

This means you wont be at Sandown this Saturday................

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

[sloazr33]

That sucks man, hope it all goes well for you

[Mr. Oizo]

that sucks

but at least you know what your next car should be, an x5

[WYTSKY]

Man that is horrible,such bad timing for those events to occur, very sorry to hear.

hope she can atleast be repaired. But the main thing is you and your gf are ok.

i mean its bad enough having a username as long as yours and now this!

gl with it mate.

[bombtrack]

You poor bastard...

My poor old car

Good luck Hamish, even though we've talked already.

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

man... i'm already sooooo sick of explaining this damn story

[BeEnAr]

Nexus man sorry to hear bout this one!! I really wanted to go for a cruise with ya soon too. Maybe you can ride shotgun in the R with me?

Did you chase that drugger down and rip him out the car by his nutsack? I woud have been red eyed running down the road at TOP speed after that C-Bomb!

Side note, I think my old neighbour is the manager of Spencer Panels, I will ring and find out if you like. Might come in handy, might not but if he is it can't hurt as he was a top bloke.

[Malz34]

[HEKT1K]
