Who's F40 in a wreck?

Uh oh, you still ok Manny? Rick? I hope its not one of our guys!

 

Yikes...

 

I hope no one was hurt.

 

I'm sure there are some hurt feelings

 

Well, I been in a shock in the past couple of days, yes it was me. it is not as bad as it looked, I was driving it on street behind my house which has no homes, on it. I drove my 360 couple of rounds and then I decided to take the F40 for quicky, I was used to the handling and braking of my 360 and when I took the F40 on the turn at the end of street, as I approached the end of the street coming on the turn I tried to slow down and since the car was cold I couldn't put in the 2nd gear so I slammed on the brakes and then the car went sideways and hit the curb and the rear hit the tree, I walked away without a scratch but the car didn't.
I think it was the combination of car being cold, a bit of wet spots on the road. I have been preying to god that I am greatfull no one got hurt. and thank god it is only money.

I am very disappointed at myself!!!! and again thank god no one got hurt.

 

So sorry to hear about the incident, Manny. Thank goodness nobody was hurt, and thank goodness we got some pictures before this happened. Glad you are ok.

 

Manny, I am glad you were not hurt. I am sorry to hear about the incident. At least it happened while you were driving the car at it's limit where it could be appreciated. You are a true enthusiast

 

Thanks Frank, Derek
I am glad I brought it to CC atleast once before crashing it.

 

No not at all, I was going to post it tonight anyways, I realy like you guys, you guys are bunch of car lovers like me and it is nice to get support from you and the F-chatters.

thank you. I think now I don't have a choice but to keep the car and just drive it as much as I can on the track to get experience. you are right about not having the traction control !!! I feel so much safer with my 360 then the F40, I always heard that the F40's are for track and not for the road, well now I experienced it.

 

Have Premier fix it!

 

wow manny, sorry to hear this. better the car then you! good luck with the situation ahead of you, hope it gets all fixed up nice and beautiful as soon as possible

 

What a bummer. So sorry to hear about this Manny. Glad to hear that you are OK.

Its only money and a car, good thing it turned out with no one else involved.

Godspeed !!

 

Have you been introduced to Roland Linder? Sound like you guys should get together after you get that beast trackworthy.

 

Manny im really sorry to hear about this incident I'm glad to hear you are doing fine and in the end its just a car and it can be fixed. Please keep us updated on how things go.

Wow Manny! Very sorry to hear this! Very glad you are okay and that no one was hurt. We've all been guilty of poor judgement at one time or another. That's how we learn from our mistakes. Just be grateful that it didn't end up worse. Again, sorry to hear this!

 

Sorry to hear bout what happen Manny Good thing nobody got hurt. I agree with Darth, Dave at Premier is the reputable Ferrari expert when it comes to body repair. Hope you get that F40 back in your garage soon... Goodluck!
