sept. of '99 me and some friends were going to a track rental on an early sat morning. im in my buddies 94' gt vert(almost bone stock and only had it for 3 mos)approx 10-15 miles from the track he fell asleep(apparently he was out late the night before and ony got 3 hrs of sleep before we left. little did i know). i was just spacing out when all the sudden the car swerved left he woke up in a panic, jerked the wheel hard to the right(all this at 85mph) the car crossed back over, he lost control, we slam into the ditch, the throttle hung open, drove up the other side of the ditch, sht over a fence(approx 30 yds from the road), flipped over 4 times, landed on the roof(we werent wearin seat belts thank god!)
and after we sort of calmed down we cawled out the pass window.
at the point we hit the ground the first time we both just laid down as far as we could and hoped for the best. if either of us would have had our seat belts on we would have been crushed when the car landed on its roof.
fortunately we both walked away from the accident with minor scratches and a headache.
if i dig up he pics from the crash ill post them up here. youd all wonder how we survived it.
thats as close to death asive ever been.
as far as drivin to the track goes, either i drive myself or if im drivin with someone else i make sure they get ALOT of sleep the night before!
