Seriously that's one of the best things i've seen, taking something like that and getting the car back out on track, that's real dedication

That's amazing how they just got in with fixing it... If I had a crash like that I would've given up all hope from the start and salvaged it, haha. Can't believe they got it going.

| Everybody crashes mate. If your not crashing from time to time, your not trying hard enough. Guy made a mistake, it happens. Morral of the story is clear though, don't bury yourself away in a hole and cry like a little bitch - do it Retro Dan style and keep on drifting

Yea thats me crashing. I forgot I was a memeber here. I don't get too much time on forums since my new job. After the wreck I only missed 2 laps of the practice session. We had it pulled and driveable for the second session 2 hours later and had the metal pulled and set for tandem by the end of the day. The car has recently got a new trunk floor rear panel and 1/4 and Im on my way to the body shop to paint it today. ![]() ![]()

Swapping the chassis would have been to much money and work. This hit was only cosmetic. The rear subframe did not move. Only the back section of the rail which is repairable. The actual shop time was 1 week from start to finish. We had to reuse the over fenders since the new ones are not in yet. I wanna thank Pete and all the guys at Five Stars Auto Body In Philly for getting this car ready for next weeks event. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()
