+1 on loose rocks. Fishtailed on many occasions due to them rocks. Not once was because of the rain.

I am starting to think that I need a sleeper beater for cold wet weather.

Be safe everyone, it's nice to see you all at meets during the summer.

This is extremely bad news for families especially during the holiday season.

You are so quick to judge with out knowing a person or his family, does that make it ok to judge you? This guy was my friend and he worked 2 jobs and went to college full time. He was a great peson and was by no means spoiled. I always recognized him for his great heart and personality. He was not irresponsible and I am still wondering why he was speeding, if he even was. He was a very responsible driver. Im thinking he was probably late to school and was in a hurry. He lived a few blocks away from that on-ramp onto the freeway, the freeway was the closest route for him.

Thats true but I believe it was the impact of the passengers side that might of gotten him(http://www.sacbee.com/media/2006/12/...n.embedded.jpg) I still cant believe that he is gone. Comes to show that it could happen to anyone. Even though none of you guys might feel the emotional impact from this, you have to think about how quick your life or some one you know can be taken away. That part of the freeway was not a dangerous or busy part and it was right off the on-ramp to the freeway. He might of been doing something else and was not paying attention to the road which made him hit that sign. But it can happen to anyone. Look at the car, I have seen far worse looking cars that people have walked out of. Look at the position of the car, its not rolled nor in a messy ditch. Everyone should really think about things before they do them. Be very care full guys, and not only that but you must watch out for other drivers. Lucky for that truck driver that he was in a big rig or else who knows if he would of been gone too. Be safe.
