Ok, here's how it went down.
I was driving in Acadia National Park along the park loop road, its a very fun twisty road along the maine coast. I was going along with a couple cars behind me went into 2 90 degree turns, the first one right, the second left. I went into the first turn at around 70, no prob, accelerated into the 2nd to 75-80, the front tires broke lose, then the rear tires, i went back and forth accross the road a couple times, right when it came back for the last time I thought I had it(as did the 2 cars behind me). At that time the rear tire de-beaded and came off the rim, the rim hit the tar, yada yada, the back end went into the ditch, then the rest of the car. I only had liability on the car, so that kinda sucks, but such is life. Just an FYI, I can actually drive, I know this car so well its scary, but when you lose a rear tire at those speeds, nothing you can do around a turn. Here are some pics, some from the nite, the others in my driveway while I part it out. **see my post in the for sale section if your looking for parts. |
