Apparently our car blends into the background a little too well (Page 1 of 2)

that sucks.  what an idiot.

"don't tase me, bro."

Then again, he was probably concentrating so hard to figure out WTF he was following that he didn't notice it quickly getting closer to him. 

I wish I had a dollar for everry time I have seen that happen. 

I would be 1 buck richer.

That sucks man

Let us know what you get from the insurance company. Maybe you'll get enough to cover your Tecate budget for the rest of the car's racing career!

All weekend long I thought I had lost the paper where I wrote down all of the info from the other driver. I needed that info to at minimum report the accident to the DMV. But my girlfriend found it, so I'll call up the insurance co today.

Yes, our race car is still licensed and insured!

i think you shuld get to add the ins money to your budget.  after all, even though it's not exactly like recouping money by selling parts, it's close.

As we always say on the drive home: "Lemons not over."

All this coming from a guy who earned a Seasoned Lemons status in about a week.

Where did you find such a long list of sponsors?  I need some sponsors damn it!!!

If you think average driver's suck on the freeway, wait till you see average drivers or worse... racing in Lemons!

or i suppose you could just let neighborhood kids wail on the car w/ a sledgehammer for $5 a pop.  get 10 of 'em to buy in, and you've got $50 toward your budget and a slightly more Lemons'd-out car.

maybe that's why 80% of drivers consider themselves to be "above average."

If I was him I would go with  that I thought it was a hallucination.

I am curious to  out how the insurance claim adjuster would figure out the worth of it.

Wow.  I noticed you said earlier no CHP was involved.  Here in NC if the kid tried to claim on his insurance with no police report to back it up he'd be SOL with most providers.  In over 28 years of driving I've made exactly 2 claims and both times the first words out of the agent's mount were "did you get a police report".  Thankfully I was able to answer yes both times.

When you first exited your truck you should have said "What kind of cross-eyed prick do you have to be to hit a giant porcupine?"  LOL!

Off topic but any one who knows me can say I get a bit passionate about things I'm interested in... that and I tend to think/discuss/analyze things a bit too much.

To sum it up... I'm a post whore with alot of questions.

Power-USA.org is my business/website. We're an autmotive enthusiast forum with a goal of unification between sports.

Dallas Enduro Sport, LimeyRacing, and Track ready performance are speed shops I have worked with and went to when my team made the decision to enter Lemons. All you have to do is ask for help in return for endless advertising over a given period. You might be amazed how willing business' are to giving you stuff at cost for a year's worth of advertising.

Monster sponsors our website and a sister website. Their contract is coming up and I have approached AMP for sponsorship. If I can negotiate a good enough deal I may swing them in the direction of Lemons as a whole. So far they love the idea but have yet to be convinced on a solid market for sales/advertising. Red Bull and SoBe are another option but with Sobe's direction towards more mainstream sports; I highly doubt they wan't to work with grassroots any more.

True... and I am the rightful heir to the entire United Kingdom...

Anyone can say they are above average... that doesn't make it so...
