Thanks for all of you who stopped by to give your well wishes. Thanks to David Jerome for offering his tow dolly and Big John who offered to tow it home. And thanks to Jonathan for helping me get it road ready.

I'm glad me and pinkflea were both ok. She picked a bad time to take a ride as that was my first wreck in my life.

I called the police to do an accident report and the trooper did his invetsigation and found the cause to be the gravel in the curve. We swept it out of the road and he did his measurig deal saying that I was doing ~45mph when I started to slide based on the marks. So be careful out there, you never know when the rug might get pulled from beneath your feet.

I'll post some repair pics as I get it done.
No problem Kenny like i told you if need'd I would have driven it all the way to your house. We take care of our own, im just glad I was in a position to help. Get her back together, Im not a big fan of the DRIFT look

Hey Kenny.

It was terrible what you went through at the gap. I am glad you got it home in one piece. I know you were cold on the way back w/o a window!!!

Kenny,

Glad you were able to get back safely.

How about this for a front end? Still Feed, you would be the only one in the states with it and it still looks good.

fyi, Michael was the Knock, knock creator, not me.

Get it fixed and back on the road.

wonder what the cost is on that...

That is nice...

Thanks man, I am working on it. Had to schedule a 3rd part appraiser to get a 'solid' value for state farm even though I had a stated value policy.

I'll be posting pics throughout the repair.

It's ok on the knock knock... I can make fun of myself. It's my first wreck ever so I guess I was due.
Laughing keeps me from crying lol.

Ala TVR Sagaris styling, one thing is for sure the lighting performance will be superior to what Kenny currently has. I'm thinking of creating my one headlight kit, ala Scoot styling. Next year....

I was thinking about this kit... but It was quite expensive.. I think it was over 10K+ body work.. Maybe someday... better yet, I might ask to be FEED rep in USA and get rid of all the knock offs

stop taking them so you can see if it still hurts. You don't want to be dependant on them (aka addicted).
