    some guy backing out of a parking spot in a toyota backed in to the rear of my friends 77 comet. the toyoya's bumper is laying on the ground, not even a mark on the comet.

    still the worse part was, 1st round of eliminations...and I cut a .004 light....would have been hard to lose verses his .119 :huh:
    but luckily...I figured out a way to lose the race :evilsmile
    The guy in the other lane was nice enough to bring me a time sheet and brought it to my attention that I would have had his lunch. :D

    spork, I would have to say you are damn lucky to be alive, much less walk away unharmed from that!

    Worst I have done would be this:

    Apparently makeing a left turn in front of a speeding '05 Lincoln Navigator on a cold wet morning isn't a good idea. The entire front end of the car is bent to the drivers side and slightly folded at the transmission tunnel. Thankfully it had just finished raining, so when he hit me, my car kind of just bounced off and spun around a few times before running up on a curb. I managed to break the rearview mirror with my head, mangle the heater controls, and slightly bend the steering wheel. The girl in the passenger seat (gf at the time) hit her head pretty hard on the window and put a nice dent on the inside of the door just below the window with her shoulder. It knocked us both silly. Going back now and reading the post I made just after the wreck, I can tell I wasn't thinking to clear. I'll definately never forget the sound it made on impact.
