Totalled about a month ago... :/

I was the passenger in this one, My friend was driving we were up in the mountains not driving fast maybe about 40mph we were driving up to this lookout point on a road somewhat close to us just to go up there and relax.

We were driving and there is one turn that gets sharper at the end we were going through it at around 35-40mph the road might have been wet or there could have been dirt on the road the front wheels lost traction and he braked to slow down we started to slow down while pointing towards the edge of the road, ( we were taking a right turn and the front wheels understeered towards the left side of the road which was also the edge) so i thought we were going to stop in time but it kept sliding slowly then it went off the edge and tipped over.

The car rolled drivers side first then slammed upside down on the passenger side and continued rolling over and rested with the drivers side frame rail against a tree. We both luckily managed to crawl out of the car but it was just us up there by ourselves in his car. Luckily we got up to the road and flagged some cars that were driving by which ended up being friends of ours (go figure) we got very lucky they were there, they waited with us for the tow truck and took me to the hospital which i ended up having a concussion, and my neck and upper and lower back are all sprained. The driver was completely fine and barely was sore at all lol.

I need physical therapy twice a week for the next month at least and i hope everything will stop hurting but basically glad to be alive and were already almost done building another car, using parts from the last one since everything but the body was fine.

Before you flame or say anything stupid we werent doing anything reckless so keep that in mind... we do go to the track and we do care about others thanks

Really a shame man. Sorry for your s chassis loss, but good luck with the new one . Post id up in the wrecked 240s thread yo.

[mattblancarte]

Yikes. Glad that you and your buddy are okay.

Sounds like your buddies decision to hit the brakes sent you over the cliff.

[bigred240sx]

glad yall are fine. but i do hope this is a girls car.

[Steady_One_S13]

Sorry for the loss. The most important thing is, you and your friend are alive.

[xX RB Xx]

but thats another f***ing 240 off the road... they are starting to be endangered

not really..

glad your ok man.

but that is why never pushed my 240's until i got suspension on it.. because they like to understeer above 30.

[sr20hype]

its good to see that you are alright bud. that sucks to hear about this sometimes.

Yeah i never really thought about flipping in any 240 just because they are low (not with stock suspension lol) but going off the edge of the road definitely changed that. I WILL for sure be putting a cage no matter what.

glad ur okay... but thats another f***ing 240 off the road... they are starting to be endangered

LOL This is the post i was waiting for I see THAT at least a few times in everyones "crashed 240" thread haha

sell me your front passenger fender

I would for sure but that fender is in bad shape lol but do you just want it as a souvenir?

not really..

glad your ok man.

but that is why never pushed my 240's until i got suspension on it.. because they like to understeer above 30.

Yeah i would not push a stock 240 lol it just dosnt feel right, Anyways this car had Tein coils on it and a full Poly bushing kit, it was for sure setup right but the compound on the front tires mixed with the road surface possibly being wet or dirty definitely overtook the nice suspension setup.

glad yall are fine. but i do hope this is a girls car.

Thanks, Nope not a girls car lol Pink is the new flat black

[TroubleBound]

Pink, with hello kitty and stuffed animals is the new flat black?

Indeed.

Not having a cage to begin with is probably the only reason u came out of it with anything less than a concussion.(Having a cage without using a helmet at ALL times is a bad idea)

Its good to here u guys made it out ok, thats one reason im iffy about taking my car up to the mountains, might be too tempting and I might end up in the same way if not worse.
