My Last Pictures Of My CSVT

[Tour_Racer00]

Had a pretty bad misfortune with my pride and joy Monday night, cruising with a few firends on a back road I turned my head to look at the back seat passengers and the passenger yelled DEER. My first reaction was to first see if anybody was coming and then swirve to the left to try and avoid it. That worked...until the weight of two bigger guys in the back caught up to me and the car fishtailed like I've never handled to that extent before. I tried to correct it but failed and ended up going towards the curb where the car hit and rolled onto its roof and then slid down the ditch on the drivers side. Good news, everybody was good and all walked out of my sunroof, bad news, my car is totaled. So keep you're eyes on the lookout for a low milage partout in the classifieds. The car had 55K miles and a laundry list of modifications

Why would your eyes leave the road? Anywho sorry to hear was a really nice car.

 

[BigBEN]

very sad man...

 

[elraido]

Mmmm eyelid headlights. You might be getting a PM later on.

 

[TheMexicanJob]

what a bummer man, i know how pumped you were when you got that car. at least everyone is ok. unfortunatly this is why swerving and then overcorrection causes these things, i just slam on the brakes and hit it hoping for the best.

 

[Steeda...]

Thats why you never swerve to miss a deer. Sucks Man

x2. Also like Five-Oh said, just jam the brakes and pray. Just glad no one was walking/biking on the trail. Also I didn't know these cars came with idependent rear stearing.

Hindsight is always 20/20.

Sorry to see your car leaving you.

Hey man, sorry about your car. I won't bother PMing you about parts, I'll wait until you put them in the classifieds. Have you found out yet what your insurance company will do in terms of covering all your car and all the mods etc.?

[Beans]

That's what I've learned on CEG. It's best just to slow down and run the risk of hitting deer rather than swerving and possibly making things worse.

 

[91HellCat]

Sorry for your misfortune. Hopefully you will find something good to replace it with.

 

[stealthy3L]

Yeah, no swerving.. just hit the brakes and stay ON the road. I hit a deer in my cougar going 65 and all it did was crack my bumper and dent my hood. That front support holds up well, just a word of advice..

 

[B.Brattina]

I'm with them on the no-swerve, but, glad you and everyone else came out of it ok. You should get some decent stuff to part out, at least
