Default Pretty Totalled!

Can't believe my luck, backed into a tree and dented my back bumper on Friday DT Kirkland.

Gets even worse, Saturday totalled my car on SR-900 Issaquah.

I pinned 140 in 4th, brake checked anticipating the light 1/4 mile ahead of me and lost control.

I counter-steered and got back on the gas at about 120 and lost control.

Everything happened so fast myself and passenger fled the scene.

I hid for 6 hours and watched the police, firetruck, and aid cars investigate the accident.

Got busted by the police, arrested, taken to the ER to stitch up the back of my head, then spent a couple hours in jail.

Misfortune, but all on me.

I'm replacing the M3, with a 06 Escalade Black Ext. / Creme Int.

he had heard about an enzo driver that has so far got away with it. cheaper cars in the market place don't get that extra treatment.
