Some of you know and others don't, that I have been in a wheelchair since I was 19. So I use hand controls to drive. Well, they broke and locked it at full throttle. It was either hit a bunch of cars or go off road. Well, we hit a power pole.:thumbsdown1: When the front right wheel finally hit the subframe connector, it bounced us off the pole. If it wasn't for the subframe connectors, I don't know what the outcome would have been.

There was no stopping me jumping back on the horse.:lol1: I have owned a coupe ever since I bought my first on new in 1988. I hope you never have to go through anything like that also Eric.:yes1:

Worse part Scott, is my friend still doesn't realize how lucky he is to still be here today. He always says it was a fun ride, every time he says that, I slap him across the face.:yes1:

What is the saddest thing is that Eric was in a Bad Mental state when this happened. I have known him for a few years and can say that I would consider him a good friend. Even if we did loose our Front Row seats with personal Cheerleaders this year. (Inside Joke). Like you guys have said, the car is and was replaceable. Eric mentally was like a lost person to some extent. It also took away from some of his independance.

Car is replaced with something just as nice in my opinion.
