Default My Wreck

Me and a buddy were on the way to Lubbock from Dallas on I-20 about 15 miles outside of Abilene in Clyde, we were traveling in the left lane going the speed limit-65 and had just passed a semi when all of a sudden black ice appeared in our lane. Before i knew what happened we spun twice to the right(in front of semi), then twice to the left(on left side of semi), then twice to the right again when on the last spin we went into and under the semi's trailer's back driver side tires, shooting us back off to the left in another 360 then off the road. (there's only 2 lanes on each side of the highway with a 50ft gap between eastbound and westbound)

The top was up the whole time and me and my friend both had our seatbelts on. My friend had to climb out of my side because the passenger door wouldn't open. Ready for some pics?... O ya, It was a Silverstone MY00 with 55k miles on it

Before


And after...

I owned it, it was paid for. i paid $11.7 for it and got $13.8 from State Farm. It was stock except for the airbox mod and a Berk TP. 2 weeks later I bought a NFR MY02 with ap2front/rear bumpers and exhaust for $11.3
