Hey everyone!!

i am so happy to talk to u guys again..if u guys still wanna me here...after all i lost the whole car:(

It was just a car....

The important thing is that everyone's OK.

People see the photos and go OH MY GOD! Because everyone knows how quickly these things can happen.

Don't be so hard on yourself.

We're all here for you. :)

g'day everyone i found this thread from a link on overclockers, i just thought i'd say to vicki and the other guys that i hope they get better soon.

If this is the accident that happened on alexandra avenue about 2:55pm on monday then i was the one to find it driving outbound, upon finding it myself and i believe a guy named 'rob' who had been driving inbound, quickly called the ambulance, police etc. and made sure the car was switched off, it seemed bad at the time but it's good to see that noone was seriously injured. I waited around until the guy in the front was taken away but when i asked the police yesterday how you were they just said it was nothing too major, just cuts bruises etc.

It seemed like a completely freak accident considering it had just started raining and having been in that position myself before i can sympathise fully and it seemed like a fantastic car that was tragic to have been involved in such a nasty accident.

I was meant to give a statement to police on tuesday but as i live quite a distance away they said they already had enough witnesses, and I only saw the car come to a stop in the middle of the road as I was driving towards melb high school.

So vicki and company i hope you are all ok and the accident doesn't stay with you for too long and you get another skyline as it looked as though it was a much loved beast!

cheers,

rod.w :)

i would like to thank you very much for your help and assistance on the other day...i was the guy in the front passenger seat...we are all generally ok...a fractured wrist and cuts to face which needed stitches seems to be the worst of the injuries.

i was actually wondering how i could find out who you guys were to thank you in person...maybe we could meet up some time, il buy you a drink!

once again, thanks. and everyone...pls drive safe in these wintery days

thnx alot rob

i wont get a skyline back tho:)

i still have my rav4 handy...thats about it

i lost my FTO not long ago too...i think i kill cars too much:(

but really thankyou for ur help:D

drive safe....

and witnesses...now i am scared...who saw?@@

Milky:

I went past on my way home on Monday - and grabbed your bumper-bar and one of the foglamps - if you would like them as a memento they are in my garage :)

Glad you OK (and Sniffy too) - you are very lucky. The car must have been airborne to hit the tree so high up!

Sorry for poor quality of image - have bumped up the levels so you can see through the dark. Compare the height of my headlights to the height of the mark on the tree!

I have all these at higher resolution if anyone is interested.

Shows how easy something 'bad' can happen. Take lots of care out there.

Aw - Milky.

Don't let it get you down too much. Yes it was a lovely car, but it was just a car.

You are OK (and so are the others) - this is the important thing.

Some days 'life' just happens - you cannot predict what lies in store. You live to experience another day - whatever it brings. That's all part of the adventure. Hang in there :)

Boy - don't I sound philosophical :)

1st... glad to hear every1 is ok, you all did very well given the state of the car!

2nd... stick with the RAV4, as powerful cars don't seem to be 'your thing'

3rd... maybe sell the RAV4, and buy an early 80's falcodore?

It just goes to show that even skylines don't handle particularly well in the wet... 'specially after a couple of dry days, the road is JUST TOO GREASY!

P.S> the only reason i'm even being remotely stupid with points 2 and 3 is that sniffy is a ledgend the way he has approached the whole thing, everyone is ok and YOU HAVE TO GET OVER IT SOMETIME... ASAP!

    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
    • 100% accurate!ย  We are a pack of know it alls....ย  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!ย  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree! ย 
    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc. ย  It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things. ย  Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing" ย  As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things. ย  It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first. ย  There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one. ย  However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
    • Remember reading about this not too long ago. been for sale for a long timeย  this is like when the wife says you need to sell the car so you put it up for a ridiculous price no one will pay
    • You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.
