GTO <img border="0" alt="[barf]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_barf.gif" />

 

I'm feeling a good bit better. I have one lingering pinched nerve and a pulled muscle in my back that is healing. I should be 100% in 2-3 weeks. Still screwing with the insurance company tho. Other driver hasnt been located and no one got a tag <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" />
Thanks for the support guys!!!!!!!!!!! It helps a lot!!!!

I just left a message on your cell--if you feel like talking, gimme a hollar.

Hey, CD55, where you at?

I feel lucky my car doesnt look like that considering the way I drive. I can remember some killer street races I have walked away from. I had zo6 behind me going through some turns on a 4 lane freeway, then that portion merged with another freeway and we had like 6 lanes. It was pretty straight and I knew he was gonna try to fly by so I had already rolled up the windows. Well he does and I follow by 100 I was even 120 4 car lengths 140 6-7 car lengths, seen my harlan come on at 6500 rpm in 5th so Im guessing 165-170mph at least.

Best part he had his girlfriend with him, I slow down and he gives me thumbs up and his girlfriend is like "your cars so fast" Dude it was like the mastercard commercial "priceless". Racing blown cobras, bikes, had this one killer race with a supra. Pretty even my blown v-8 was screaming and his turbo 6 was spooling and in between shifts blow off valve action it was ******* awesome!

Just trying to cheer you up as I here your getting a V-9. Nice eye candy but weak max impeller speed bro. Go with a D-1SC if you want a blower with potential.

Hope you enjoy your next project, maybe this will give you some ideas...

Damn! Good luck on your recovery.
Where is Jonesboro located?? When you decide to start wrenching; I'd be glad to help if I can make the trip.
Again; good luck, and I hope the turbo kit is not messed up.

Dammit, Jerry. I am really sorry to hear about the distruction of your TA. I had not been following the FI bulletin board and had just heard about your wreak at a recent car show the Birmingham F Body Association (BFBA) put on.

I am glad to hear that you made it through alive!! From the looks of the car, that was quite an accomplishment.

Hope to see you again soon at Steele in an even faster F body. You can take some more of the videos where you leave my car, ZOOOM, in your "turbo dust".

GET WELL!!!!!

 

Candlebit...after viewing your picture of your car, you're very lucky to be alive. In looking at the structural damage on the driver's side, I couldn't imagine the nasty impact behind it.

As it's been said...cars can be replaced but human lives cannot.

Get well dude.

 

Thanx guys..I'm over the "car is gone" part....shoot just being around my daughter lately has given me lots of perspective.....I will do another turbo ws6 after I'm all done with the insurance company....my turbo kit is fine...
I'm hoping to see some of you guys reach the 10s and represent for the FI crowd!!! My car had 10s in it long ago....needed to get at least a torque arm and some better tires. Hopefully you guys will keep after it and not blow up. Remember....fuel is the key...FI takes lots of fuel...make sure you got the pump/regulator/injectors to keep up. I'll start a new thread soon with the few things I learned along the way.

 

Glad you are alright and glad you didn't remove those door bars. This is why I wonder why people remove the front and rear bumper supports if they are going to drive on the road.

Glad you are ok.

Eric
