Oh Noes!

Gap regular Sara had to stand by and watch her Corrado go up in flames yesterday on the Dragon. She is ok and I heard there were some valiant efforts to retrieve a few items from inside the car by Phast Phil via large rock! (thnx "Warrior Mike" for the pic, and Sara for being a good sport) No more making fun of my fire extinguisher!



We're just getting back from spending a week at my mom and dad's new place over in eastern NC. We've got a new "feature" going over there on the right menu...it's photos we take with our camera phones and upload from nearly anywhere. We'll try to keep them coming! Posted by Picasa

Sara is a friend of mine. She posted on Ncdubs.com this message

"it didnt just catch on fire.. the motor was the last to go.. i was out on the mountain .. and my radiator hose blew..so coolant was every where.. and it just caught underthe car in the leaves... so i watched it burn for 2 hours.. while i could do nothing.."

That sucks. My SHO+ suffered a small electrical fire in my driveway last year. I had just used all three of my extinguishers in the garage on a dumpster fire some kids had started a few nights earlier. Luckily, the hose was handy before it got out of control.

Anyway, good luck with getting a replacement, Sara. And Darryl, be sure to put up some happier pics of Sara in the future - she's very easy on the eyes. ;)

That's a bad deal with Sara's car. Don't I recognize her from Motortopia?

I have been watching all your cell phone pics roll in.

OBTW, What did the folks at Best Buy do to deserve the middle finger?

Jeff said...

Sorry kid! Tomorrow will be better, but why didn't the fire department / rescue / police respond?

brian a: Yeah she's "Intoxicating" on Motortopia. Hope you like the phone shots. ;) The finger to Best Buy was just a joke for my friend Josh (blue Evo/black Rx-7) since he works there.

Jeff: It's hard to get a call out at the Gap...gotta drive about 20 minutes away to get decent signal. Even then, the closest fire department is about 45 minutes away.

Sad thing to have to sit and watch your car burn. 8-(

Darryl...what kind of phone do you have? It sure takes better pics than my Moto!

brake.fade: Lori and I picked up a couple of LG "enV" phones. Kinda slow to focus/shoot, but decent for what they are.

I'll say this...the girl knows how to dress for a crash and burn.
