So my father took these this weekend, GNX #285 wipes out at end of 9 sec. run… 2 stories… no brakes… throttle stuck open… driver was elderly man with minor injuries (lucky) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v223/scarfa21/100_1393.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v223/scarfa21/100_1393.jpg) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v223/scarfa21/100_1392.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v223/scarfa21/100_1392.jpg) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v223/scarfa21/100_1391.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v223/scarfa21/100_1391.jpg) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v223/scarfa21/100_1390.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v223/scarfa21/100_1390.jpg) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v223/scarfa21/100_1389.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v223/scarfa21/100_1389.jpg) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v223/scarfa21/100_1381.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v223/scarfa21/100_1381.jpg) ---

I have seen a good number of GNX in the last week or so, but everything starts to come out now with the Woodward cruise around the corner. I saw one last night and threw some revs and a thumbs up and he returned the favor, but we were is some traffic so neither of us were going to play. ---

Fix her right up. Pull that body back out, some new doors and front clip, tube frame, and you’ll be good to go. On the bright side, this way you can tub a real GNX and not feel bad about it. ---
