Instead, they have a 'Today, I drove for the first time.. I crashed' thread.

Light turns green. Mustang guns it. Fish tails and slides into a ditch on side of the road. I haven't even moved from the line yet..

..I did not crash.

Wow! What the hell is up with that?

Also, drove my FRS to work today in the rain. (big surprise there)

Did not crash.

yesterday i was cruising on the tollway, middle lane, and a nice grey minivan decided i must be a mirage/that they needn't check their mirrors, and i had to swerve and honk to not have them crash into me.... so.. success?

2nd time thats happened in a month, always drive defensively

I did some changes lately to my car and altough it has more power, it is also harder to drive it. I'll have to get used of it and get better as a driver. However, no crashes till now

I don't have any stickers

Quite common here and on all car levels. We don't want people to know what we got. Personally, I have only the subaru badge front and rear. No lettering or signs of what it is installed.

I took a 180 mile trek to get dinner last night.

The restaurant is 70 miles away, but we had to skirt around some brush fires in the area and ended up taking the long way. The road it is on was a fun road to drive on though. I don't need an excuse to drive!

Also, I flipped 20,000 miles last night (I've had the car 1 year)

SCCA Solo at Daytona yesterday. Didn't crash it, but I did need new underwear after my 3rd run :@

humfrz · 05-07-2017, 05:31 PM

Well, OK ....... going to venture out today in our FR-S ...... if mrs humfrz can find her shoes and store bought dress.

Going to the Buttered Biscuit for a low cal, healthy brunch ......

Not to worry, mrs humfrz will be with me and she is a screamer (no, not in bed, just when I'm driving the FR-S) so, she will scream out when it looks like I may crash.

I'll report back later (hopefully).

humfrz · 05-07-2017, 07:56 PM

OK, we're back ...... the first scream came before we got out of the subdivision ......

After I slammed on the brakes and in a flash, looked for everything from falling trees or airplanes to children and pets ...... I exclaimed that I SAW the BIG RED SUV coming ....... she retorted ...... but you were still rolling .....

We DID NOT crash ........
