Almost creamed by my favorite carnofear39427 10-17-2006, 12:11 PM I was driving home from work around 9:30pm and I decided to take a back road to stay off the highway because I was really tired.Well I was cruising down the road doing about 55Mph,around 120 kilometers:sunglasse .I come around a curve to see flashing emergency lights and from the looks of it as I was coming around the curve it looked like he was in my lane at a dead stop:1zhelp: . So I whipped it into the other lane only to see that he was now in the same lane that I was now in.I jerked back across the road and hit the ditch and kept rolling.I looked in my rearview mirror to see that it was a 3rd gen Eclipse that almost creamed me.Appareantly his lights has blown and he was driving really fast.(Dumbass)When I got home I got out and inspected my car its okay Thank God.It scared the hell out of me though:crying: .And after all I am still paying on the damn 94 Clipse that I have now.Damn Used Car Dealers.:uhoh: Sorry to Killer for his accident I guess no one is really having a good year.:shakehead l_eclipse_l 10-17-2006, 03:51 PM How were you "almost creamed by your favorite car"? That one that almost hit you was a 3g...:rofl: EDMUND65 10-17-2006, 04:00 PM hit the ditch and kept rolling your car is fine hitting the ditch and rolls? ned032002 10-17-2006, 04:45 PM Yeah by the sound of things it sounds like you rolled mulitiple times then you must have landed on your wheels to drive home. nofear39427 10-18-2006, 09:43 AM Its not that a 3g is my favorite its just I like Eclipses.And yeah it rolled home fine afterwards but I messed up my brakes in the process.Haha that would have been cool flipping end over end like Ace Ventura.LIKE A GLOVE!!

Or you went down into the ditch with your tires rolling? gthompson97 10-18-2006, 10:36 AM I'm pretty sure he means his tires were rolling. When I usually see flashing lights ahead of me, I slow down, don't you? Maybe that would have caused you to "not almost get creamed by your favorite car." steviek 10-18-2006, 01:07 PM and I don't want to to make fun of your math here but your way off on your mph/kmh conversion. 55mph = 88kmh 75=120 gthompson97 10-18-2006, 02:28 PM and I don't want to to make fun of your math here but your way off on your mph/kmh conversion. 55mph = 88kmh 75=120 I was going to comment that that was wrong but was wayyyy to lazy to actually do the conversion and figure out the correct number. eclipsed at 3am 10-18-2006, 09:43 PM kmph - (roughly)30% = mph steviek 10-18-2006, 10:21 PM divide or multiply by 1.6 nofear39427 10-20-2006, 08:48 AM I apologize for the mathematical error:screwy: . No I didnt flip the car I just hit the ditch pretty hard with the tires rolling lol.I screwed up my brake pads too and now they are scrubbing really bad.I had to buy some new ones.i am praying it didnt tear up the rotor or anything else.:frown: vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
