If you can crank the engine my bet is on a fuel pressure shutoff.

You could have damanged alot more than you think.

Engine
Drive train
Frame

List keeps going. - You NEED to take it to a shop for YOUR own protection. - To get it reviewed is only like $100.

a lot of cars have an emergency fuel shut off mechanism.
it's basically a magnetic ball that closes if your car was in an impact of some sort.

Well I had tried starting the car right after I lost control and got nothing so I got it towed. I didn't get around to messing with it until yesterday and after doing a full visual check up on everything, it started on the first try. Now, next on the list is taking it to the dealer and letting them tell me the bad news. It started fine without any problems but just to be safe, I will get it checked. I guess I will be driving my race truck until then. Thanks for all the replies.

Good to see she started up, take her in to see if there are any issues.

One time I went in a ditch in my 7 series. - Thank god the thing is built like a tank, I came out with only a broken control arm. - Only $75 for the part! ...Could have been ALOT worse.


Glad to hear it, let us know how she turns out.
