It's not safe to park anywhere except in a bunker under 30 of concrete w/ dual 10,000 lb blast doors protecting the entry apparently.

Nick, this bunker should work pretty well to keep people from running into your car while parked. New garage!!!

Word.

That would actually be kind of.. cool.

Maybe if it was a little closer to a city.. (fat chance)

Hmm, I image somebody buying this and turning it into a bad horror movie...

Feh. Someone at work (unknown) managed to hit my car. Back up into it or something and sheared off a nice portion of paint and clearcoat, down to the urethane.

..I'm sending it to Steve's.

Uf, that sucks.

I'm also sending mine to Steve's Collision. The other guy's insurance company doesn't have a prefered shop in Reno, so they said I could pick anywhere.

Also, while I was there a guy from Progressive was there, asking me who was covering this claim. He then went on to complain that all the insurance companies were stealing his good body shops.

Then I told him that I chose it based on word of mouth, and that the other guys insurance company didn't have anyone to recommend.

I ended up talking to Steve on the phone, and he was real accomodating too, with some special requests I had. We'll see how the work goes, but for the time being, I'm feeling pretty good about it.

Nick Koan · 2006-06-13, 01:19 PM

Also, since the car is now sitting at Steve's, I'm rocking a sporty new Mazda 6 Sedan with the V6 motor.

And although I don't think I'd purchase one, its a rather nice car. I approve.

A1337STI · 2006-06-13, 02:26 PM

very sorry to hear that .

such a beautiful car. it will be all pretty again though

kidatari · 2006-06-13, 02:30 PM

Man, that sucks Nick. Good luck on the repair job.

+1 on that. I never even park in my driveway if I can help. Too many idiots flying around the neighborhood.

SpecB#127 · 2006-06-16, 10:42 AM

Damn, so many people getting their cars hit. That really sucks. Hope you get them all back in tip-top shape ASAP.

As a side note, I've already had to replace my windshield on the Spec B thanks to a nice rock kicked up by a truck. I didn't want that $350 anyway....

I ran over a rock yesterday on my way to work. Shot right up into my wheelwell and gave me one helluva scare. Damn dump trucks.

Will you have your TESP machine back in time for the next Stead event?

Nick Koan · 2006-06-16, 04:32 PM

I would, if I was going to be in town, but I'll be busy that weekend

Joeyy · 2006-06-16, 04:37 PM

Sorry to hear that. Is it work or play thats getting in your way?

Yeah it's really going to suck sitting in grandstand 12 on Le Circuit de Gilles Villenuve watching Alonso and Schumacher duke it out in Canada instead of dodging cones at Stead.

Joeyy · 2006-06-16, 05:37 PM

How many of you all are going? I need a Scott Speed hat or something.

Sorry to see that Nick. I'm glad he was at least honest and fessed up to it. What do you do?

JC · 2006-06-19, 10:38 AM
