My Love Is Crushed

[RoadRash]

Hi guys!

I had a crash yesterday on highway @ ~110-120kmh.

The street had been wet, the car's a** went sideways and I hit the walls left and right.

Watch it..... tuning steps are cancelled.

Now I have to see if it's possible to repair the car or not.

Cheers Mike *very very sad*

[Kazi]

Gutted for you mate. Least your ok though.

[Anees]

:o Really sorry to hear that! Crash looks nasty.

So the backend of the car just went unexpectedly in the wet?

Hope your is is repairable!

Good Luck. :D

I'd be suprised if its not a write off. At least you are ok though if i were you if you have access to the car start stripping good bits off it as i bet the insurance won't cover everything ;)

[spikes]

looks bad ,but your ok.

[peter026]

Looks messy, still as long as you're OK.....As Austin says, start stripping, before anyone else does.

[yemgi]

I am gutted for you Mike :( there are lots of bodywork to fix I hope you will get it sorted

[Mr Singh]

Very sorry to see that, i'm gutted for you.

:(

[Gord]

Gutted for you

[Adie]

Really sorry to hear /see that Mike. All that hard work thats gone into the car

At least you're ok though, the car is always replaceable mate

[RoadRash]

Thanks buddies for your sorry-feelings.

The car is now secured in my workshop.

My Lexus dealer has a 24h pick up service so they picked it up today.

Not seen the car now, I hope everything is in and on the car.

Pretty sure this "hot ride" is just 1.5tons of scrap metal and plastic.

You don't have an idea how it hurted seeing the Lexus crashed on the right hand side of the road.

I was screaming: "My car, my car...."

People who stopped had been worried about my and my friend's life.

But we are OK.... we got out of the car like for a tank stop.

The doors opened normally, the windows had been OK, nothing was broken.

Just the front and the back is wasted.

I took a look under the bonnet and didn't see any damage on the engine.

Just the radiator and the intercooler and other parts are somewhere on the A1 Westautobahn.

Well.... on TUE my Lex-dealer-workshop will call me and then I can check out what next steps will be.

Is it worth to do a repair, or to cull everything out.

I think this was the end of RoadRash's Monster which died on duty.

And it did its job very well.

In permanent memory, your Owner RoadRash!

[Pip]

Ouch. Really sorry bud.

[Dave-Ellen]

Really sorry to hear about this Mike.

Hope you hear some good news.

[GALLA_4]

Sickening! This car was something special!

I'll always remember it from your little JAE video from last year Mike!

You did well to walk away! Chin up and this should only serve to spur you on to bigger, better, faster things!

[LowRed]

Really Gutted for you mate, that looks one hell of a smash :shutit:

RIP RoadRash Lex

[LexusIS200Sam]

Feel really sorry for ya mate, Looks like a nightmare come true. Glad you walked away without being injured.

[marcus]

WOW man that looks bad mike, so Gutted for you mate, i know how much work you have put into this IS, but like the rest have said as long as you and your bud got out ok, i feel for you mate

[Bobski]

Im glad you are all fine..........

But as for the car............. I think its going to be "un-economical to repair"

I hope you can take what you can out of it and start over.

All the Best

Rob
