Wow @LeeMaster, such a sad and scary event to have just read. Im glad you were able to walk away and well enough to type that story. Sorry for the loss of your baby, but like everyone else said, at the end of the day its just a car. Don't beat yourself up, we all make poor judgements in life. Your lucky to walk away from yours. Stay positive and hopefully you will be driving off in another new fun car!
Ian

Let me try to explain a little bit about what happened. It was a little after midnight and the road that I was on had a declined right curve. It was dark in the area that I was at and I couldnt see the debris until I got really close to it, I had to either kept going the direction that I was going, or swerve the car to avoid it, I chose the latter. Im sure most of you know what im talking about when the headlights cutoff and are limited to what you can see on the right side of the road.

When I ran over that debris it caused the car's weight to be transferred to the left side, I am very positive the right tires had already lost contact with the road. Did the tires blew, that I do not know but I couldnt find the debris when I got out of the car after the cops blocked off the ramp.

The only thing I could think of is that when I ran it over it mustve gotten stuck on the rear passenger tire. But then again, the rear passenger of the car as it is right now is completely destroyed. The cop that saw everything couldnt tell me either, everything just happened so fast though. I really hope none of you had to go through with what I did. Enjoy your 86s

I just threw beatsonic on mine 3 days ago. Don't listen to the radio much but the few times I turned it on it sounds just as clear as before!

I forgot about it too, not that I was in any shape to go. I'm surprised they didn't give us a reminder. I supposed I should be keeping an eye on MNSubaru periodically.

I went; took the gf with me. It was pretty terrible weather so there wasn't too much to look at. I just picked up my GrimmSpeed Hood struts (WHICH FU#%ING RULE @GrimmSpeed !) and left.

Now my hood is much happier and the hood prop is gone from my car.
