That's good to hear, cars are always replaceable. I had a buddy that was street racing and wasn't so lucky.

Yeah that is one reason not to street race. I'm glad your friend was lucky, mine was too after he flipped his 3000GT on the highway after racing this other guy I know (who is a ricer douche whose mom owns an A6 2.7t so he thinks he's the ****) and Bishop I'm sorry to hear about your buddy.

Yea my friend was only going 15 over the speed limit, 70mph, but lost control downhill(bad tire) slid sideways into an oncoming car. They estimated the impact at ~105mph. Luckely the girl driving the acura is alive. Although she did have several surgeries. speed does kill. An acura integra split a 95 for mustang into 2 pieces.

So on that note, tires are serious. don't drive on bald or worn out ones.
