I'm sorry to announce that #37 was involved in an accident this past week and is a total loss. There is absolutely nothing salvagable on the car.

I hit a guard rail at approximately 70 MPH in an attempt to avoid hitting a racoon. Unfortunately, I didn't have much room to negotiate once I left the highway and cartwheeled along the rail. I'd probably be dead if it wasn't for the air bags. I ended up with about 15 stitches on my arm. Not too bad all told. It's a shame the the car was a total loss. I'm currently in the process of acquiring a '99 Firehawk to replace it.

Youch...I was hoping it was an April Fool's joke. At least you're ok...too bad the car won't mend, though.

Thanks guys, I appreciate it. Fortunately, I am still a member of the SLP family. I picked up a '99 Firehawk last Friday to replace the Comp T/A.
