My friend Rob just got his silvia shipped like a week before SCC and was so excited to get it that when he did it was pretty much everytime we stoped that a burnout was in order. That finally caught up with us when we were crusing down deerfoot on the 9th at 4:30 “rush hour” and the rain just started to come down. We were driving at 80km in a huge pack of cars and the rear of the car started to hydroplane. The rear started to slide out and countersteering didnt do the trick. We spun a 360 and then got T-Boned by a 3 ton ford truck at 80km. The car is totaled. Twisted frame and the whole side is smashed. It damn near shit the bed when we got hit. I still have broken glass in my pockets. Anyways, this could have been avoided if we had NOT bald tires in the rear. So make sure you guys have decent tires on your car so that i dont have to hear a bad story from any of you guys. We will post some pictures tomarow.
Once everything is all figured out we will post up all the for sale things on the board. Plans are to get another silvia and swap everything over. Carfull driving guys.
Rob will be keeping the engine, seats, coilovers and a few little things here and there. The car he is going to get will prob only have a ca18de non turbo so nothing speacle. It will all be posted on later though.
