It wasn't me this time!!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So another woman driver did a number to one of our cars. WICKED1, the trailer, and the truck all took a hit from a drunk 18 yr old Sat. night around 2am. Luckly her b/f and his brother drug her a$$ back to the scene so she could get her 3rd DUI (one inc. 4 deaths). Thanks goodness she has insurance because it's gonna have to fix 3 vehicles. She must have been doing around 40-50 and hit the parked trailer (not hooked up to the truck though the truck was parked in front of the trailer). Somehow it broke the 10000lbs tie down and shoved the car into the back of the pick-up. Her car was up to the windshield under John's and she somehow managed to back off the trailer and drive a few blocks. Trailer and truck suffered relatively minor damage compared to the 'bird. The intercooler, piping, radiator, supports, oil pan, rear sway bar, and both bumpers are seriously damaged. There is possible rear diff and axle damage and definite body damage due to the creases in the quarters. John's pretty bummed mostly about the damage done to other people's property (truck and trailer not ours). It definitly overshadows the awesome 10.19@131mph w/ 1.46 60 ft pass made Friday night. The good news for me is that at least it wasn't THIS woman driver to take WICKED1 down. Will post pics as soon as I can get them loaded.

JMFC!
wow. i am absolutely floored at this. she's 18 freggin years old and already had 2 DUI's before this? WTF was she even doing driving? IMHO if you get a dui/dwi you probably should have your license revoked to begin with even if you're 21, let alone 18 and have 2 and one where you killed someone. i swear some people can get away with murder. (no pun intended)

sorry i couldn't bite my tongue on this one.
/endrant

very nice runs, btw.
