Working on uploading the pic. Facebook app on my phone is being a *****...
Either way was leaving school today, coming up on a side road that runs behind a shopping plaza, has a nice sweeping curve going into it. I went through it kind of quickly, just to liven and wake myself up after 3 hours of talking about propellars.
All of a sudden I see a Ls1 trans am flying up my butt and coming fast from the turn(I have seen the car on campus(NBM trans am with silver WS6 hood)
I am turning left and take it a little quick, not really wanting to get side by side on the same road as this guy, as it merges down to 1 lane, and its obvious being an ls1 trans am it out handles, out accelerates and out brakes my car.
I see at the same turn, he was turning right, I make my turn look in my rearview, see him fish tail wildly out, loose the tail, get the car pointed waaaaay right, get traction, fly off the road hit the grass, cross a sidewalk and straight into a concrete block wall. He hit HARD, I was expecting him to maybe glance it, destroy the nose/fender, but not major damage. He hit it straight on and looks like he went through some, but climbed up others, nose in the air. Wouldn't be surprised if it set the airbags off.
I turned back around to make sure he was ok, he had the hood up and was outside the car. And of course snapped a quick shot. I didn't want to sit and take a bunch of pics, sure he was already a little pissed.
Felt bad, another Trans Am off the road at least temporarily, maybe totaled if it did severe damage.
I mean most of us have done similar. I can vouch I probably did a 100% identical move in my 94 Camaro, same trajectory only diggerence being instead of a little concrete block wall I hit a flower bed and hedge.
