thanks for everyone's concerns, and as for the others. It's a one way road, and the only cars for miles in any direction were ours. And around 10 people don't usually go walking along those roads. As for my kill list, a lot/ almost all those were on the track thank you. The fact that I made a least is why you think what you think, try making a list of the cars you beat then talk. But all in all the car is going to be ok, THANK GOD. It seems it wasn't a total lose. The mechanic said that whuile it isn't totaled and the fram is good, it was going to be one pricey fix. Good thing for the insurance, and I don't see how this one incedent's will effect everyone elses insurance unless the same happens to them. anyway I have about 3-4 weeks before my S is up and drivable again.

Oh and as for the skyline gt-r, that one was on the street, but I couldn't resist racing a skyline. I have the race posted somewhere in street encounters (MY04 vs. R32 Skyline), can read about it there if interested.

What did you drive before S2000?

Sounds so familiar.

Unskilled driver behind tightly balanced car such as S2000 being pushed to the limit = story like above.

Something tells me you deserved this and hope you learned your lesson.

How about spending some time and $$ on driving school?

well before the S I had a 86 corolla hatch(trueno). And as far as unskilled goes, who's to say i'm not better then you or anyone else. I wonder how you would have handled the situation. The car probably would have made it if not for the leaves and crap on the road, but I am not blamming what happen to that.

Baaaaah, let me not waste my energy on this.

Just becareful next time. You should be thankful that you didn't hurt others or yourself this time. You thought you were a good driver since you had all those kills to list out? Reality bites?

Truth is S2000 is not Corolla. As soon as you realize that you know nothing about this car and way it behaves then start spending time and $$ on driving lessons and track events(not drag tracks) you will truly enjoy S2000 to its fullest capability.

Most importantly, you will get that little boy racer state of mind out of your head and you will become that much safer for others and yourself on the road.

Good luck

I'm happy to say no I've not had any unfortunate incidents, possibly because I don't drive like a stupid a$$. Meaning I don't street race, drive while on the cell phone, or push the car beyond my capability on a public road or risk the life of my passenger.
