RIP little eg, a nice one it was too :( youll slow down there in future..
 
Sadness was short lived tho as got myself an EK9 afta. The EG only had 35,000 on the clock
 
oh i bet that was a brown pants moment..

shame to see another low mileage eg6 go though :(
 
85mph on public roads has some down sides I guess.
Sorry about the loss, but nice gain on the EK9 buddy.
 
Hilarious people zoning in on doing 85 mph as if everybody doesn't speed. Rip to your motor.
 
Yea was pretty dum of me learned my lesson the hard way :((

Its easy to speed...its hard not to in these civics. Right?!? Self-control!

Tracks are so much safer; track is cleaned and track corner workers letting you know of issues on track prior to running through or into the issues.

Do you track you car at all? If not try it, its a hoot!

yeh but we don't crash :p haha..

Sad loss man, gutted for you but glad you were ok. and a bonus you now got the best civic they make :D
 
I know that feeling (not being upside down) but crashing :( heartbreaking.

But your OK can be grateful for that and you got A ek9 :nice:
 
Ouch but to do 85mph round a bend is brave I must say, everyone speeds but use some sense next time :)

Crash? He rolled it! He lost control of his own car, its not like he was hit by another car...he lost control.

Very lucky to not have killed anyone outside of himself.
Taking ones life into their own hands is not a big deal, but taking others is a very big deal.

Very true
 
I don't know if it just seems to me because of the angle but did you have 2 different tyres at the front? If you did then my suggestion for the future would be to spend money on having the same tyres all round or at least same on the same axle before you fork out on exhaust etc... Anyway, I'm glad you survived ok and did not take anyone out! Enjoy the 9 :)
