The kid was really nice about everything. He was just following too closely and made a mistake.

He was driving a 240. There were probably 60 cars in the cruise. He hit the most expensive one to repair. This included 2 GTRs. It was shit luck on his part.

The last thing he said was “i’m sorry man. also, i just want to tell you that I’ve been following your BMW thread on zilvia like every day.”

Yeah the kid was quite upset for a while there but there isn’t anything anyone can do about it now.

And I’m 90% sure the driver of the truck that hit my Z does not have a license anymore. 4 Month before hitting me, he went through the living room of a house.

The kid that hit you or his friend, not sure which, just sent me a pm being very apologetic about the incident.

he was asking permission to show up at the next meet and though that he might be banned.

at first when josh called me i thought someone slid and hit the Elise, which would have been instant ban. They’re good kids, just have to make sure they dont drive in the cruise next time.

we shouldk make the kid a shirt for the next meet… like a plain white tee and let Newman write on it and his punishiment will be he will have ot walk around with whatever newman wants on the kids chest… embarass the shit out of him…lol

HAHAH

LOTUS ETR  
The shirt idea rules and I also feel bad for the kid, It’s not like he was doing anything dumb.

And if they do ever drive in a cruise again, have orange flags and a light bar on the roof.

The kid said they decided to go right home afterwards and it was total silence the car the the whole hour+ on the way home.

He basically rear-ended his idol…

AND…

as reluctant as i am to do this… this picture has just surfaced.

[quote=“newman”"]

Got rear ended by a 17 Y/O kid who had his car on the road for 3 days. He had insurance (thank god) but you’re probably looking at 10,000 dollars in damage. He got a ticket. I got a police report.

If its possible, I’d take the kid to the cleaners.Then i’d buy a carbon fiber clam shell and call it a day. 😛

:bloated:

Why fix it and sell it? This is not a major repair. It’s a costly repair, but it’s not at the expense of the car’s integrity at all.
