i can't stress enough to anyone now about wearing seat belts whenever you are driving. 

they definitely saved our lives last night, or at minimum a trip to the Emergency Department for serious injuries. i don't think we have both ever gotten out of a car so quick. regardless of the events i would still get into a car with cam any day of the week. 

was a fantastic weekend away, and loved every minute of the trip.

Was a great weekend, lots of good driving and photos. Not a very nice way to end but at least you got to enjoy the car and get some nice shots of it.

Hope insurance is stress free and you Cam are able to replace it with something just as awesome.

You two are top guys, glad you're both ok and look forward to catching up with you again.

Thanks Matty, It was a pleasure.

Shit happens. Cars can be replaced, Mates can't.

[aekOne]

that's a major bummer lads! thankfully you're both here to tell the tale. as Cam said, cars can be replaced, mates can't.

looking forward to seeing what comes next

Well said Mark.

 

Thanks lads.

Not much I could have done with the roo. I know you are meant to hit them but it's just instinct to try and get away from them.

 

It's human nature and we make mistakes man. No need to explain yourself, you did what you thought was right and who knows, hitting the kangaroo could've caused more injury to the both of you.

if we had hit the roo, airbags would have gone out. we got lucky in that airbags didnt go off during the accident. definitely helped reduce injuries and a quick escape

That's exactly right man. That just further proves that Cam's quick thinking got you out of a situation that could've potentially been worse for the both of you.

[Cam.]

Quick thinking would have been driving the correct way in the first place. Not doing a barrel roll into a creek

Can only laugh at it now. On the plus side I don't have a black car anymore lol

[Tim.]

This is unbelievable. Glad to hear that you're both ok! Good ol' subies hey!

Looking forward the the replacement fozza.

[Cam.]

I do believe I'm finally going down a different path of cars this time.

Figure that out later, Until then I have a corolla and excel to drive. The beauty of owning a couple of cars, I would hate to imagine what this would be like if it was my only mode of transport.

or those rear diff bushes. 

[Cam.]

Outrigger bushes*

Worst farkin' thing. Note to anyone wanting to install poly outriggers, Don't do it.

Your ears will love you for it. They belong in race cars.

Was it really that bad?

yeah, it was

[Robert]

Nvh?

[Cam.]

It would be less painful to line up kebab sticks with your pupils and run face first at a wall.

Decel from 100-90kph was shocking. I'll probably give the outrigger inserts a go one day, Never a solid whiteline bush again though.

It only made the car feel better accelerating out of tight corners.

[Robert]

Haha, stuff that I'm going to leave mine alone.
