Default Final words to the s2k community

Ive read so many stories on the forums regarding to accidents and what not, but never really ever saw my saw myself getting into one until saturday night. It was one of the most terrifing moments of my life. Ive only been in 2 accidents in my life. 1 due to HARSH weather conditions to which i had no control over, and 1 becuase of a lady who ran a red light. But this accident was 100% my fault due to stupidity. I had one passanger in the car with me, to whom which was my girlfriend. We are both ok, and i thank GOD for that. the story behind this all, was due fact of speeding and lost control at a curve and ran into a tree around 40-45mph. The insurance has claimed the car at a total loss, i have a broken right hand, my girl with harsh bruises from the seatbelt/airbag, and a huge amount of paperwork to fill out. I am only 19, but from this experience, i have learned so much, and realized the more important things in life. There could have been so many outcomes, but yet GOD chose to save mine and my girlfriends life that night. I know most of the s2ki houston community highly feel that teenages like i, should not have such a nice car like the s2000, and i guess i have done nothing but prove them right. I am highly tramatized from this accident, and am seeing a psychiatrist, and hopefully over time things will get better. since the car accident i have not yet gotten into car, but with the support of my family and friends by my side, i hope that i will be able to ride with you guys again. well here are some before and after pics of my car.

ALSO i would like to make a special Thank You Tristian (s2kpinoy) and Edwin for their support that they have given me in the past few days.

Glad to see you and your GF are ok!

I don't think believe that notion is true, I know 40-year olds who don't deserve an S2k either It's what you do with it and how you handle it. Hope you stick around with the s2k community and have a speedy recovery.

Damn that was one nice ass s2k. Im glad I got to see it in person before it was gone. Im Glad to hear your doing well. Ive been in a harsh wreak too once but it wasnt my fault but I know some of the trauma you can go threw.


Ive been Driving my s2k since I was 16. Im a couple months from 19 now. its all about how much self control you have over temptations.

Im glad U got those D2s off before I got them.

sucks, but this just goes to show how full of shit Forbes Magazine is for putting the s2000 as one of the most "unsafe" cars.

glad you and your gf are ok, and don't be a stranger
