:doh:


first off i would like to say this was done being stupid and i already know that. this was done at the michigan video shoot. anyone who was there feel free to chime in and talk about it.

It all started on a two lane country road where i was driving kinda fast next to another f-body. I look up and there was a car coming down the other side of the street in his lane. nothing i could do but avoid hitting him and the seven people standing on the side of the road there cars and the guy next to me as well as the tree and the mailbox.

total damage is consisting of repainting the front bumper from where i knocked down about 30 feet of corn. all and all i can say i was very lucky to come out the way i did without seriously injuring someone. it was a lesson learned the hard way.

Anyone who was there feel free to add your comments or add something i forgot.

First off when your car was airbone going into the corn, you flew over chad and some how missed him. And so you know you were in the corn by more then 30ft. Try 60ft!

Wow, I wasn't aware that farmers had taken matters into their own hands and started growing new F-bodies since GM has dropped the ball.

Sorry man, I know the situation sucks, but since nobody got hurt you have to be able to see at least a little bit of humor in that pic..... looks like an F-body crop.

Once again thank you for not killing me.


For everyone that wasn't there. When he saw the other car and was forced to try to avoid an accident I have to say he could not have handled the situation better. Like he said he could have easily killed several of us but thinking of people's saftey first and his car last he went into the corn field. I personally feel lucky that he was behind the wheel. Almost anyone else and one of us would be in the hospital or even worse.

Do you plan on making it right with the owner of the field?

I don't see him going back to michigan, and getting caught up in the web. It was across the street of a friends of mine's friends house. And they informed us that the police came there shortly there after.

Glad to hear nobody got hurt. Looks like a good crop this year! A kid from around here took daddys vette out for a ride and put it through a morton building. No injuries either......probably until his father found out. Oh ya and it was not to leave the garage while he was on vacation.

Monster Garage builds a stang that mows grass....You have a firebird that harvests corn, whats this world coming to??

don't feel bad... i too had an accident this weekend. long story short gravel turn + cell phone + STEEL set mailbox = bad time. My car didn't fair as well as your though, about 5K worth of smash on the back right corner. Your fbody cuts the corn, mine delivers the mail... terrific!

I've never seen corn fly so high! I'm surprised it just backed right out too. I remember getting next to the car and asked if you were alright, and all you said was, "I'm pissed".

Just glad noone got hurt, although I thought for sure Chad was dead. Just saw him hit the dirt and then a silver blur.

Hey, did you get him on camera?
