Yesterday, while raining...I was driving on the interstate doing around 60mph...in one of the middle of 4 lanes, when my back tires started spinning and I lost control - - I hydroplaned straight into the median concrete wall on the left side of the fast lane...I sustained NO injuries thank God considering I ended up bouncing off of the wall leaving my car FACING oncoming traffic in the fast lane.

This was my first car I ever bought MYSELF, and my first manual transmission. My first two door, my first sports car. It was such a beautiful car...I loved it and had only owned it for 9 months.. It will be a LONG time before I buy another car. Hmm...Oh interesting..my car hit the wall on the DRIVER (front) side....yet the Passenger airbag went off ONLY...not mine...??? Im not injured so I can't make any legal claims to Carmax for failure of airbag..(I assume)..

Anyways, it was GREAT sharing photos and threads with you guys! I will remain on the site as a spectator.

Hey guys thanks. Um, I don't think i can take the brembos off-- i dont have any other brakes to put back on it.. I WISH i could sell the brembos -- that would help me financially right now. I dont have anything really to part out either (except the pop charger which may not even be good).
