F*CK PORT REPUBLIC...
#1
...and these idiots that can't drive. I dont know you Hunter, but i was talking to some MM guys at Blair's house and your car came up, and how it had just been wrecked 2 days ago. Well a week and a half ago this happened but someone running a light. Hope your car turns out alright, glad to hear you weren't hurt. Mine is up 42 at Dans Body Service, which is apparently a pretty good shop, one of the best around here. Anyways, 4 grand in damage (control arm, shock tower, sway bar, intercooler, cv joint, etc)

EDIT: i was turning left into ashby from port.

It's definitely the hills, people fly down them and can't stop or going up them and can't be seen. I had to turn out of the Commons when I lived there and it sucked. Went down a few weeks ago and it is worst than it used to be.

the hills grew.. its nuts.. insane

but yea.. wrecks every damn. stupid people stopping to turn into gas stations..appts.. etc..they need a damn turn lane all the way down the middle of port

the best part was picking up the intercooler off the street after the car got hit... kinda funny.. in a not funny way

resevior is a pile of ass too. if i could make it out of my parking lot alive (actually witnessed a medium speed wreck in our lot one day) it was a harrowing experience just to get past sheetz, then the speed traps going down to cantrell. the fact that i rode my bike to class nearly every day and that i'm still alive is pretty crazy :lol:

of course, i'd gladly take that every day over sitting in the tangle of motorized dimwits known as atlanta

Mikeith, condolences from a dub/audi man. at least your frame isn't tweaked or anything...all replacable, and you're ok.

Nope, the lanes did and the jersey walls to boot, and the fact that you can't see(east down Port Republic) and nearly have to inch all the way into traffic to get a clear view.

they need to make it 25mph and enforce... the problem is people do 45 over that hill and if traffic is in the way, oh well....smash!

Yeah I saw your car getting towed away. Ther are at least 1 or 2 *serious* accidents at the exit of 245 or rockingham hall and port republic its really quite a serious problem.

Confusedhock:

people have been sucking more at driving b/c the people who really suck have not been dying due to the increase in safety mods we need to go back to the non-airbag, f the seatbelts, and no anti-lock brakes(...kidding...)
