Hey all...finally back, sorta

Post by j0n » Mon Sep 24, 2007 10:13 pm

As some of you may have read when i posted back a month or so ago i was struck by a car while on my motorcycle which broke my left ankle and my right leg. I'm finally driving again(though it will still be some time before i can shift the car like i used to) and will be finishing my nitrous install(heater, purger, walbro FP) hopefully this week.

Just thought I'd let ya guys know that I'm back and look for some posts in the drag racing section when i can finally try out the slicks i bought way back when.

A few results of the accident:

My moms cousin brake her femur and hospital put a metal rod in to fix it, they put incorrect size of rod and after like 5 months the rod snapped and now she has to go back for surgery.
