KWIKNEON - R.I.P

[AdamSnow]

October 15th, 8:15pm. Ontario, Canada.

On my way to Chatham from London on the 401... I turn onto the off ramp at Dutton at approximatly 95 Km/h. A white grand am with 2 teenage girls follows me onto the off ramp at approximatly 130 Km/h... doesnt slow down... They smashed into the rear end of my car and sent my car hurling towards the median. Front passenger side of the car hits median at about 90 Km/h. Car flies into air and goes up on its side, and then smashes down onto its wheels again where I steered it to the center of the 401.

I'm fine... I was strapped into the car with my racing harness and everything, I didnt even move from my seat... The 2 girls left in Ambulance lights and sirens and rushed to London hospitals.

So thats the story of how KWIKNEON got screwed... I cant belive that just normal driving killed her... I always thought I'd wreck it on the race-track...

Pictures are located here : Pictures of my wrecked car It doesnt actually LOOK that bad, but the front frame is twisted up, the back frame is twisted up, and the roof is buckled... yuk... 🙁

Crap man, sorry to hear that - those ACR's are cool cars...

The pics don't look bad at all, but a buckled roof? ouch man...

hopefully insurance takes care of you and you can get another one!

Hmm... You named your car KWIKNEON, installed a racing harness, and post blazing times of 14.973 @ 91mph?

I have nothing further to say.

Edit: Sorry about the wreck though. 🙁 Glad you weren't hurt. Let's hope the people are OK.

ACR's are among some of the best handling FWD cars, I don't know if dragging is his forte if he has a racing harness in there 🙂

You don't have a frame.

Sounds like a fun time. How is your neck? Was the girl insured? Hope to hell you're not in a "No Fault" insurance area!

Sure its no '69 Mach 1, but for a Dodge Neon 14 seconds all engine isnt that bad... and it was quick... I'll take anything out to and old curvey road and give you a good run...

Sorry, my unibody on the front was twisted up, as with on the back.

The body shop told me that the frame was twisted, so... whatever... you know what I meant... 🙂

Umm, he said he was going 95kph. That's just shy of 60mph. That's not fast at all.

Sorry about the car wreck. Glad your okay!

Look at his sig, Eli was referring to his trap speed in the 1/4 mile
