ITRCA

So the hatch was doing great......





















































Then on June 10th while driving to work at 4 am a herd of bambi's jumped out in front of me.....mowed one down with these results...





little fucker!!



So my insurance company totalled it out, which means they give me a couple thousand bucks and take full coverage off of the car until I get it fixed and then reinstate full coverage.

Car is in the body shop as we speak for a little body work

before paint

















in the shop



























































For some comedy, a couple of my friends needed pressure washing help so I brought my ladder!

The ladder pictures put a smile on my face.

PB has a ridgeline that it didnt fit in! Hatch proudly stepped up to the plate!

man that thing is going to be seriously pretty when it gets done.

Pros and cons to it. Its still gonna be my daily.

after the first dent/chip then that worry is over. nice paint will have years left to it. I've already started trashing my 98 after full paint/body work, the remorse stage is over.

Do you think you'll be able to make NCCAR dude? that should be a pretty short drive for you

Damn Jim, certainly glad your ok!!!

I do like the sound of you heading to the SC/NC area... we may have to put some sortof mini-meet together before winter gets here.

I am hoping to get down there in the month of august somewhere. Just gotta work it out with everyone.

Thats the september event correct? If I have a house I will be tracking the teg, if not I'll be spectating in one of the other cars.
