Thanks for all the concern. Yeah this totally puts a damper on my whole year. I have been loving this car so much. Actually emailed Koso Kustoms about the sale on iForged wheels. Thought I'd finally get around to a few more things on my mod list.

Being unharmed is no small thing but it's hard to be positive right now. The fact that three full size guys walked away with nothing more than some red marks is testament to the design of the FX. No glass broke. No burns from airbags.

And just like that... *poof* she was gone.

Started with insurance - they are picking up the car from the wrecker lot today or tomorrow. I'm going out on a limb to say it is totaled - air bags plus damage on all four sides. No matter what the settlement I want to buy the car back if that's an option. I gotta believe the Motor, Turbo, wastegate, BOV, haltech, motor and transmission are all ok.

I'm honestly thinking I'd have to get another FX and do this again. Seriously.

Sheeeit! Thats a pretty wicked spin and stop. Musta been scary being so outa control. The whole rear is gone too, and bent. I would say that big red is toast.

Wow that looked bad, but glad everyone is ok! You should ask them for the speed limit sign you hit as a token of remembrance.

What made you hydroplane? We got poured on yesterday, I assume you guys got some of the same. I know my rear tires were all over the place, but that's because they are practically slicks with how low in tread they are.

Good luck with insurance also. All the stuff you have has got to be worth more than what they will want you to buy it back assuming it's totaled.
 
wow...that's bad! It doesn't look like you were making a turn, so did you hit the gas pretty hard that made you spin out like that? I was suspecting a tight turn....
 
OMG!! That looks really bad! I'm glad that yall weren't hurt, but it hurts me to see big red in the shape she is in. Where was this at?

dayum that sh#t hurts especially from a former fellow red owner! so sad to see! the good thing you are okay, the fx are tanks and they built them good, hopefully you can salvage the engine and all the goodies because that would be even worst, i know your heart sank especially when you first looked at it! there is no words right now. so sorry bro. but it is great you have a back up.
 
Sorry to hear about the car.. It may be broken, but I'm glad your spirit isn't. The Fx will rise again.
