Default SRT-4 8/15/2004 - 11/13/2004... RIP

Ladies and Gentlemen, I am living proof that seatbelts save lives. Was cut off by a late model Maxima that apparently wanted to race. He blew by me then cut me off before I even knew what was going on. Unfortunately when he cut me off he was so close that in order to make him miss me I had to slam on the brakes and then swerve to the next lane over. In doing this I lost controll of the car and lost controll. The car rolled 3 times and flipped 1 time end over end, then came to rest on the roof. Its been fun chatting with all of you and I wish all of you the best of luck with your rides. Im done with racing and speeding for now. Im getting another truck I think. Ive had pretty good luck with those in the past. If any of you need parts, stage 1, blow off valve, Full stock exhaust etc... Please let me know. I will tell you what I have left.

Remember, Always wear your seatbelt!

Your not kidding, it's a good thing the hold you in place the way they do. It's also a good thing you weren't on the other side or that it didn't roll the other way, the way the top of the passenger seat is coming out of the top/side where the roof came in.[:@]

Glad to hear your okay hunn. I agree 100% with the safety of the seats.

I'm done with racing and speeding for awhile myself. Everytime I'm in an SRT I get so scared I cry. Good luck with your next ride, whatever that may be. And did they get the ******* Maxima? Did he even stop??

Thank the lord your alive, and your family wasn't with you. I'm so sorry hunn
