Man, that sucks. I'm glad yoou came through it unhurt and with a sense of humor.

I'm curious how you worked out your brake booster.... I have a buddy looking into doing a similar swap. Do you have a build thread?

Sorry to hear about the car.

**Rocktree** · 05-09-2011, 08:55 PM

Wow!

**boomersooner523** · 05-09-2011, 09:55 PM

Story?

**Battlecattle** · 05-09-2011, 10:16 PM

Day before

**Battlecattle** · 05-09-2011, 10:34 PM

basically what happen was I had just pulled out to pass a car and about 10-20 feet behind the car they entered my lane. I hit the brakes but they were going to get hit so I turned toward the side of the road. Hoping to hit grass and maybe the embankment after slowing down. Turns out there was water there and I plunged into the water side first and instantly had water up to my face and out the window I go. I scramble to shore and up to the road to find nobody around. Which leads me to believe the car did it on purpose.

I don't know anyone that will willingly take a standing still impact by something in motion accelerating even more towards them. They lose, you win.... no matter who is driving what. The object in motion wins. They are likely just like every other half ass driver and weren't expecting someone to pass so didn't look well enough. By your account, you did the proper thing based on your previous actions leading up to it. Played, paid.

I am really sorry to see such a nicely done car in that shape. The fact you hit water and not a brick wall actually means that if you can avoid hydrolock a good tear down and dry out, then re-lube everything and it might be ok for just a little body work?

Not every day you get to Dukes of Hazzard a lake.

**kalib0y** · 05-10-2011, 10:21 AM

wow, that really sucks. Were you able get the other cars information?

**Alex E24 E30** · 05-10-2011, 01:04 PM

Man. So glad you are alright, but that really sucks. Saw your car the day before, too, at the dragon.

**quazar** · 05-11-2011, 09:57 AM

How long was it in the water before you got it out?

Sorry, I had to laugh at the fish on the dashboard.

**Battlecattle** · 05-11-2011, 10:02 AM

The other car never stopped so I didn't get any information

A little over 12 hours under water

**setho1993** · 05-11-2011, 12:13 PM

Good gah didn't see that one coming. Glad you're alright man, sorry about your car.

**elvirb87** · 05-11-2011, 02:53 PM

**samiam3356** · 05-11-2011, 03:05 PM

WOW! Glad your ok man.

What are your intentions from here?

**84318i** · 05-11-2011, 03:34 PM

hope you had full insurance with stated value

it's a goner.

**jtq007** · 05-11-2011, 04:27 PM

dude.....people are just jealous, I saw the car at C&C and i looked at it for like 10 mins and it sucks to see that happen so soon.

btw, refering to the veyron, did you keep up with it or was the guy even pushing it?

**Battlecattle** · 05-11-2011, 04:35 PM

for 2 million dollar cars... they were moving very quick. I was right behind him because I know the road.

I actually pulled over and let them by because I lost them on the road earlier.

**bonzilla** · 05-11-2011, 05:32 PM

I would drive into a lake if a veyron drove past me.
