Thread: Rolled the GTP

yep i did it. leavin the house. buddy behind me. looked down at my phone and looked up and straight into the ditch i went. flipped her upside down and didnt get her flipped back over for 3 house cause no one showed up. it was still running upside down so i plan to dump oil back into it after all of it went onto the ground and try and start her up. ill post pictures when i get home. i have a few questions what to do with body work. its only body damage. being that im gonna pull her apart im planning on painting her black to so here i come new car!!! (no need to call me stupid or anything i feel like sh** the way it is and my friends arnt helping so i would apreiciate it if you dont add to that)

Dude I'm sorry to hear about that and you should think about getting some new friends... Black would look good though! Good luck and I'm glad you didn't get hurt or anything serious.

there just doing it cause it didnt happen to them. thanks im planning on black with some kinda of silver accent. anyone with idea for accents let me kno, and body work tips will help to after i post pictures

...dude, pay attention when you drive.

What in the....How long where you looking down at your phone and how fast were you going?

But anyways depending on how straight and good you want your car to look be prepared for MANY hours of sanding. If you don't get your panels straight before painting it period ,let alone painting black, its not going to look good at all.

What are your exact questions about body work? I will try and help you with ideas, options, and how to's as much as possible.

yea i know. thats something i have now learned and at least i learned young and no one got hurt. i hope this is a lesson to alot of people that think its okay to use your phone when you drive, this is a great example of distraction.

well i was only going 30 and it was right when i entered the turn. the questions about body work are stuff like how to pull this f-in dent out of my roof and things like that. yea im already thinking about the late nights sanding everything. ill have pics and tear down pics on sat if its nice out

Pictures will help alot with determining how to attach dents and such alike. Glad to hear that your alright and no one was hurt or involved other than yourself...as odd as that sounds.

yea it was one hell of a ride. im deciding to stay red. but yes i will post pics

srry to hear that man, erm dang...sry to hear that....sheet happens.

actually i live on a gravel road (great on paint) and no one was around except for my buddy behind me. im sorry for making grand prix drivers look like idiot and i apoligize for seeming like one of those dumba** kids but ill try to make it up somehow.

Well, you do it once and its hard to do it ever again. Your car probably has a little more bodywork that needs to be done if it was resting on its top than you imagine though.

I'm not a hypocrite, so I'll say I use my cell phone while driving a lot, sometimes text but I'm always aware of my surroundings and living in iowa, if traffic is close to me, I'll put the cell phone down and drive...

hey for FoSHO did you ever have a kid riley install subs into your car?

haha good job mikel i hope that gtp works for ya, your gonna like it way more then a gt. im planning on fixing all my body work and then selling it to another kid. the title was not salvaged or anything all work is just body so its still a well running car.

i wasnt using it, i just looked down at it. everyone started saying i was texting and i was like umm no i just looked at it. but ya no matter wat there a distraction
