Red Pepper Racing

On friday morning just before 7am some guys trailer lost its tire and it was carrying a tank of diesel we have been told which spilt all along the road probably about a couple of cars long.

I come around a blind corner in a 100km zone see one ute just up the road driving over the center line into my lane and another ute behind that slowing down real quickly, i see this and put on my brakes but basically could not get any traction at all as there was some diesel spilt all over the road by some idiot, so basically just slam into the back of it at probably around 80-90km/h around 60miles an hour i think and munched the front of my car even bending the chassy.


Heres some pics







We got put in an ambulance as i had a real sore back from the impact and Alex (3gcvc) has sore chest from the seatbelt as the left side hit a bit more and went more in because there had been rust repairs on that side, basically went to hospital for 3 hours sat around talked to police and had xrays and were told to go home and take panadol.

Now we have the issue of having to pay the towing company about 120bux (like 70 or 80USD) for towing fees with it growing by the day.

Already on the search for a new civic and hopefully will get a bit from the guys insurance to cover this.

But we already have ideas for a revival of this civic...

i like that color ..suck t osee her all fuck'd up

well good to hear you both are ok. sorry to see the damage. but it looks like the car did well fo ra 60+ mpm hit

hey look a good fender and corner still. if that was a crx there would be no saved parts.

good luck with the hunt fo ra nother nice car and incerence.

glad you two are ok.

dang, that car looked sick
thats the first time (i guess) ive seen pics of it.

that sucks about what happened. but the main thing is, you guys are okay. it sucks to lose the car, but you could have lost more than just that. and to me, a car isnt worth a life or two. hope to see the car make a come back

btw, is it just me or is there a skyline off in the distance?

i just noticed that wow

yeah its not fixable either there is a bulge in the passenger footwell and on the roof above the door(drivers for you USDM/CDM people.

yes there appears to be a grey R32 skyline in the background.

we will do something with the rest of the shell though just need to get another one lined up first.

at this stage i am hoping there is no damage to the Koni red shock absorbers in the front and the 4-2-1 extractors. but the ZC hood is toast:(

yes that looks like a gt-s or somethign and it is good to hear you are ok but that sucks about your civic

yes the GTS model RB20DE power "ahem" the civic would have taken it easy... GTS is nothing special... we will find another civ soon have a couple in mind already depending on how much rust they have...

idk about the civic taking down the skyline.. but strageer thing have happend

the GTS skyline comes out non turbo dohc injected its heavy so the civic has the advantage skyline needs to at least be RB20DET or 25DET to go faster...

o there not turbo'd ok the civc would take down the skyline

this civic will not be doing anymore skyline taking i dont think...

well since you cant drive it anymore would you be interested in selling the sideskirts and the door molding


ive got a purple civic just like yours sad to see it go
