It's Ok, sweetie. Jealousy does that to people.

Obviously you haven't been around long enough (or sober enough) to realize who you're talking to.

He has no reason to be jealous of your riced out Impreza, especially in it's current state.

And for the record, you had to have been driving too fast. Mechanical failure or no, you wouldn't have fvcked it up that bad if you weren't hauling balls.

I didn't read the whole thread, but it looks like everyone is flaming imprezawrxwagon for being an idiot an wrecking his car. But it can happen to everyone. No one is immune to stupidity!

But, imprezawrxwagon, don't try to lie about mechanical failure! You messed up. That's called an accident.
 
Just admit it was due to driver error and I will leave this thread. I see your cockiness refuses to be deflated.

I get the impression that people are flaming him because they don't like him, presumably from previous threads.

breaks and/or steering
Sorry, I really doubt that. Take some responsibility in this life. Everyone fscks up from time to time. Sh!t happens. How you deal with that sh!t, and how you take responsibility for it, is what makes you a man or not.

I never not claimed the responsibility of this accident. it is just that it is still under investigation, so I decline to make any definite statements. That's all.

It looks like he wrapped it around a tree or a telephone pole. :Q

Good thing there wasn't anybody in the passengers seat.

Okay, I looked at the other pics. What the hell were you doing driving in a forest? 😛

autocross is fun

until there is a sudden stop caused by something composed of brick, stones and some wood
I'm going to point out that had you lost it in a right-hander and someone (me on my motorcycle for example) was coming the other way at the right time you'd be looking at manslaughter in addition to a totalled car. There's only one place to go fast....a closed course. Any other time and you're potentially putting innocent lives at risk. You can blather on all you want about what a good driver you are, but you lost control, by yourself, simply because you were going too fast. Take it to the track from now on or take the fscking bus. I've seen enough people die here in town over the years because of people like you.

save the lecture for wife and kids. I never clarified what happned, nor I am going to. The autocross reference was meant to be humorous and in no way reflects what happened. Actually, a mechanical failure is being investigated now. And it really thrills me to read all the posts from self righteous people who never cared to ask if I was OK, or there was another person involved.

So, one more time: it is not certain, but appears that there was a machanical failure. Also, I'd suggest we keep safety lectures to the appropriate place, - a driving school. Also, let's try to talk about reliable, inexpensive to insure tro-three year old cars under $15K
You know what? I don't give a sh*t if you're OK or not. You stated (after being pestered for two pages) that no one else was involved and you were hauling ass. Hence my "lecture". You're an idiot for driving like that on pubic roads. Period. The only mechanical failure here is between your ears.

"You stated (after being pestered for two pages) you were hauling ass" I do not believe I ever wrote that. But believe what you will.
Oh, I see. I guess I misinterpreted "the car hit brick fence column at serious speed and got severy damaged".

"You know what? I don't give a sh*t if you're OK or not", -

you know what? I don't care if i bump you off the road when you are on your bike in my next car. Won't even stop to check if you are OK. Hypotetically speaking, of course.
Nice. You can't deal with the criticism for driving like a 'tard, so you're going to threaten me?


"You know what? I don't give a sh*t if you're OK or not", -

then why should anybody ever care about selfish ignorant rude people like you?
You're the one risking the lives of others on public roads and I'M the selfish one?!?! Your high levels of smartness have failed you yet again, I see.

I have by far better driving skills than average driver, especially average driver in ATL, - who's scared if there is a snowflake within a mile. I put on Z rated tires and my car is in better shape and check more often than vast majority of the cars on the road. Unlike all those people, I am actually concerned about safety. Why don't you quit trying to sound holier than thou and stop with the lecture?
