Very curious to know what silly things people have done over the years, be it by accident on purpose or just plain stupidity.

For example:

 

Like last week while on the way to the tracking garage i tryed to show off doing a U turn but ended up hitting a kurb and bending a wishbone , i just fitted new inner hicas bushes which also bent. was literally right out side the garage so ended up just limping home. Wont be doing that again too soon. :mac1: :mac1:

 

So what you guys done? and come on i know you lot are far from angels :rofl: :rofl:

 

this should be interesting.

I know, and check out where the seat belt is.... lucky i WASNT wearing it id say.

 

 

You're bloody right!!!

 

I cannot believe you were not seriously injured, you should have been squashed to half your size!!!

I was pushed and stuck forward my knees wer touching underneath the steering, my foot had bent the throttle and clutch, they had to cut the seat coz it was jammed forward, the door was sticking in my ribs and was real painful until they gave me the happy gas then i was in a world of my own...... went and saw the car next day and took a few bits i needed.

I'v seen plenty of write off's but that really is one of the worst i have ever seen!!!

2nd day of z ownership pulled into a space in local morrisions

 

not sure where the front of the car is, highish kerb at the end of the space

 

scrape!

 

ahh there it is!

Na its not as bad as it looks, trust me go and look around the net there are far worse ones, i saw a pic a while back, a guy had been cut in two when a truck drove over his merc. they took the corpse out in two pieces and plomped it together backwards. nasty

j1mmytt!!! Dude that car is a total mess! As zx-eyes says, I too have seen plenty of salvage in my time, but that don't even need to go to the crusher lol, you did all the hard work for them :D

YEAH MAYBE!!!! But you did'nt DIE!!!!!

it feels good to survive something like that, to return to the car next day with the salvage owners telling me how im brave to view the car thinking the driver was dead, you should of seen the look on his face when i said it was me.

wouldnt wanna do it again tho.

it was more painful when i stacked my motorbike, i got pics of that too if ya wanna see my leg.. bit gory.

you'd be suprised what people can walk away from, Not taking anything away from Jimmy's car but thats not that bad really. Nice 3rd door made there by the way.lol

Go on then, why not ehh. lol

Erm, 180mph plus in my Z on a certain motorway somewhere in Lancashire on tyres that were down to the wire :slap: Only found out about the tyres later lol

ok the leg is mine and the knee is my friends who had a similar accident, from that day on we never went out without leather and the full kit.

Must of been fun though. Bet it brought you back down to earth when you found out about your tyres. LOL

And that is why i did my cbt, realised you have got to be mental to wanna ride bikes and went no further. Like everyone told me - stick to four wheels!!! lol

It was midnight and the motorway was empty apart from a lonely metro in the inside lane doing about 50, watching his lights wobble in the rear view mirror was funny lol. VERY lucky re the tyre - there was actually an 18 inch flap of rubber where it had delaminated lol. Was great fun though, damn thing was still pulling like a train I just lost my bottle when everything went blurred lol

You must be fairly brave, i'v got to 150mph and it felt rather unsafe so i backed it off, however when i get it back i might push my bravery level - not that i can get it anywhere near what your car is capable of. lol

i crashed my first car, properly, aged 4. Parents owned a house that had a drive snaking up to the front door in lynton lynmouth. Dad .

 

You might know my old man then Dave... Paul Johnson, he grew up in Lynton!! small world

Mine first one was in a VW polo coupe, thought it would be a good idea to see how far I could get it off the ground 5 up.... Turned out to be not such a great plan when it hit the ground and crushed the sump, gearbox linkages, exhaust etc

 

Had to kick it out of forth and two of my mates managed to pull it into 2nd so I could limp it home!! oops

Not if I steal your engine :rofl:

 

I would'nt put it past you, ya cheeky fooker :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:
