Some states (or is it insurance companies...) don't allow you to buy the wreck back (but you can always ask a buddy!).

poor WRX, it is a WRX, right? cause that is a real shame.

glad you made it out
and hopefully the insurance comes through, cause you were racing.

here's a thought, LIE to them, tell them you went ice fishing for the first time

i'm glad nothing bad happened to you Joe

I thought you got tired of doing tests with heatsinks and decided to do some Xtreme ice cold water-cooling to your new Aopen + P4 combo

Well, Thank god for small miracles. you and your friend making it out. if the car would have gone in sideways it might have ended up on its top. Looks like its going to be a total write-off, was the in-car camera rig present or was that safe on dry land?

Default duh..

I was wondering how long it would take for someone to ask him what the hell he was doing on a lake in a car... come on now if you take your life in to your own hands like that stuff is bound to happen! Haven't ya heard of Murpheys Law?
