Fara accident

How you feeling?

I would like to say loosing a tire on the track was a horrible experience i don't wish it on anybody since Sunday i've been real upset about it truly there was no way of avoiding it. Very few people had the decency to come talk to me about the accident well here's the story. I was parntered up with Jerry to tandem i was leading we get the thumbs up from the guy at the line we both dip i threw first then shifted quick into second rode it for a while then clutch kicked i was having problem's getting the car sideway's all day but that run was different i finally got the car sideways everything felt good then i switch back and the passenger side just dove straight down into the track i thought tire came off the rims bead i was soo wrong photographers on that turn started weaving me down and i asked them what happen they scream the rim came off then a official came to me asking if i was ok and i banged up the car pretty bad i get out the car and inspected the studs you can clearly see the lugnuts stripped completely out why this happen i have no idea. This should clear up the rumor going around about loose lugnuts which wasn't the case. I do run Vskf's all the way around and they are pretty heavy rims which im pretty sure played a part on the accident im truly sorry for what happen i really like the fact that some drivers defended me on this subject while other drivers said to go fuck myself since i killed some track time real mature on your part. Thanks for Locko, Ralph, Bryant, James(Amy's friend) and whoever else helped with the car while i was stuck in drivers meeting. Car didn't get to banged up the rim is fine small scratches, Header has a nice dent, tension rod bracket is bent, & of course i need new studs and lugnuts. Hopefully this clears all the rumors going around if you still hate me i don't know what to say goodluck in life..
 
why and how can anyone hate you for something like this? are people really that stupid?

yes thread after thread its oh abe doesnt know how to torque down lugs. people that werent even at the event and dont even know the story. w.e thats people and their stupidity abe cant wait to see you out there again
 
can i join the 3 wheel crew ? JAJAJAJA :)... dont worry for next time we'll get you real studs ;) lol
 
yo abe dont worry bout them haters. all the matters is that youre ok and in good health. and glad to hear the car didnt suffer major damage. the thing is though when ueo's tire came off and hit the blitz skyline everyone was like OMG!:eek: he is sliding on three wheels and they praised him, but people here are like what a dumbass, should of tighten his lugs properly bull. all i say is props to you for being able to keep the car in control with only three wheels
 
damn. haters trying to keep ya down!


i dont see how ppl get mad about this. its an accident. they happen. move on
 
Most likely what happened was one or more was loose or over torqued. But either one is still accidental. I've seen pro teams in any form of racing loose a wheel.

It's super lucky it happened there and not the other faster direction on the way back! Coulda cause you to straight line into the wall or some crazy shit.

Doesn't sound too bad for damage considering. Good luck on fixes
 
were they aluminum lug nuts?
i believe you are only supposed to torque alum. lug nuts 5-10 times and they are done..

but that really sucks. at least it didnt put you into the wall or anything
 
even though i dont like you and you dont like me shit got blown way out of control. shit happens yeah it fuckin sucked that it ate a huge chunk of the track time but again its not your fault. The track officals shouldnt have sent out the flatbed then stood around with the thumb up their ass for 15 min before getting the tractor out there. The guys at the line had no idea what was going on. i hit estie on the radio so he could tell people to take off their helmets and shit and the guys at the line still didnt know what happened. they found out like 5 mins after atleast some of the drivers knew. good luck on fixing your car and next time buy legit lug nuts
 
*****.shit happens.ur ok cars ok. Get back out there and slide.good shit on holding the drift.
 
happy your cars ok. I was one of the pissed people but it happens. But i do believe it could be avoided by keeping up with your stuff if you feel a little play then replace them with quality lugnuts. Not autozone crap. But i appoligize for being dick.
