Well,
The unthinkable happened last night. I was on the expressway in Tulsa when it was raining and I lost control of the Continental and spun around about 300 degrees and hit the concrete divider at a backwards angle going about 55 MPH. I had to sit for about 15 minutes till a police officer showed up till I could get out, seeing as how i was facing the wrong way hanging out into the fast lane, and the images in my mind of my trunk being pushed in filled my head. When the cop finally arrived to stop traffic I was amazed at just how little damage there was. The back passenger wheel is cracked, and kind of bent in, I think something on the suspension in bent or broken, and theres just kind of scrapes, dents and rub marks along the back door and fender. I know if I'd been in my Beretta I would have been seriously injured. I hit the wall hard enough to launch my glasses of my head and into the back window, and for my sunroof cover to come completely open (and its pretty hard to open). So a testament to the survivability of our Conni's, I hope mines back on the road shortly! Chris
