Hey Guys
 

Hope you guys have all been doing well. I've taken some time away from the board for the past while to sort out a lot of things and keeping myself busy. I've finally bought another car (ITR) to replace the S last Thursday. Went all the way to Ottawa to get it.

For those of you who are curious about what happened that day I'll summarize it in a nutshell as I don't want to post in public specific details (PM me if you really wanna know). After analyzing it for a while, I concluded it was a combination of a lot of things, but of course there are always prevailing causes. Initially, I kept telling myself I exceeded my limit, then realized that it wasn't the case. It was mainly due to poor judgement as a result overconfidence (built up from the beginning of the day). *I was driving too close to my own limit in a place that I wasn't familiar with*. BIG MISTAKE. Anyhow, you live and learn and sometimes it's the hard way. I'm going to pay the price for the next 6 years with insurance rates up the nut. I'm already paying 6K for full coverage minus collision right now.

I can understand some of you guys might be ticked off cuz I may have raised your insurance rates so feel free to vent here. I'm open to bashing, criticism and comments good or bad.

Fred, as long as you are ok, money is just another illusion that you need to worry about.

Meanwhile, enjoy your new car!

I think we are all just glad you are ok, it wasn't pretty.

PM me the details though, I'm curious as to what happened.

Money and cars can be replaced, your life can't. and remember, an ITR is no slouch either.

Good to see you back !

Fred... was it a White ITR or did you stick with Yellow? :)

for the least... you walked away from it... could have been worst...

sorry to hear you have to let the S go, glad to hear you are ok.

since you said your insurance is quite high, i can't imagine what the ITR would be like as it's a high-risk car as well.

good luck

Sorry to hear about your unfortunate incident. Good thing you're ok. All the best.

You've got a PM as well. :)

Yeah the ITR is about the same price to insure as the S2000!

Glad you're ok, you just never know in life.

Fred glad to know you're ok. It was a hard thing to look at but you walked away without a scratch. PM me the details if you want :)

If it makes you feel any better I drive a TJ now :p

Fred, we are all glad you are ok and doing well.

Good luck with the new ride Fred. I love ITRs.

Hope you stuck with yellow.
