Yeah, 240's were built to slide sideways, no way they are going to flip unless you are doing something wierd or someone hits you on the freeway or something and you go into the medium.

my friend drifted off a cliff at about 40, rolled 6 or 7 times and stopped about 200 feet down

his cousin flew out the window, and both of them walked away from the scene.

i wreaked my S13 on the highway and i tell you i didnt move. not a cut on my. i hit into a truck that hit someone else (all friends :D ) but my hood bend just how it should and nothing moved inside. the accident was around 30mph (due to weather on highway) but neither me or my brother were hurt at all. you sit a safe distance from the windsheild and my seatbelt didnt let me move anywhere from my seat. good job nissan :)

Thanks again for the Pics. I am feeling pretty good about the car and it's saftey.

Partenting book? Haven't given it much thought...I have three kids... The 240sx driver is the oldest at 16 1/2. #2 is 11, He is my dirt bike partner... Just got rid of his Honda XR70 and stepped him up to 125 Yamaha 4 stroke

My youngest is 8 a girl... So far she is pretty damn perfect and just likes doing whatever the rest of us are doing.

Parenting tip of the day...Be interested in what your kids are doing, regardless of what it is.

Yesterday my son had a freind over and they asked me to help them work on his Honda... We all spent 4 hours detailing the car and getting it looking and running as good as possible (it's still a honda though...) Most parents might be suprised what kids will tell them if you just hang out and talk... I even sat in the car while the sub woofer demo was done...and yes "it is cool that you set the alarm off on MY car when you bump your stereo..."

Or maybe I am just still a big kid myself...

...I haven't crashed a car yet, but came pretty damn close yesterday... Ended up doing a 360 in the rain b/c I took a turn too sharp and did the first thing they tell you NOT to do...hit the brakes (no I didn't slam on them...). But yeah all is well, no damage, and there was nobody else around. If anything it was quite fun...I wish I could do it again in a closed track.

Trust me...I wasn't thinking too well yesterday:rolleyez.
