    My 94 VR-4 Wrecked

    Well as some of you socal guys may have heard, my 94 VR-4 was badly wrecked today coming back from the Annual Mitsubishi Owners meet. A guy slammed into the back of my car pretty bad damaging the back end, wing, hatch and bumper. The insurance company may end up totaling it. Not only did the guy slam into me, he then attempted to run me over when i got out of my car to confront him. I was able to jump out of the way of his truck, but he ended up hitting my leg with his front bumper pretty bad. I was in the ER for 8 hours. I am not happy about this. i just finished restoring this car with brand new everything.

    That sucks! Your car was really nice and well taken care of. I hope you got his tag number and reported him to the police. Where was this? The last I saw you was at the 5-805 split.

    That sucks man, sounds like your cops are a bit on the slow side. Guy does a hit and run and they take his bs story with 0 evidence? (unless you blacked out and tried to kill the guy? )
