Lucky to be alive

I don't normally post journals and such, whoops, but uh, here:

So like…. I’m okay, thank god, but my car is a mess. I recently came into ownership of a Mazda RX-8. It was a fun car, and I do a certain event with it. Today at the event during my last run I lost control and well,  I can’t go into too much detail but I can explain what happened.

I hit a curb that lead to a concrete edge of sorts where some plants are planted. I nailed the curb, bounced into that concrete wall as my front bumper corner slammed into it, spun me around AND sent my car onto it’s right side, I saw the view for a brief moment even. Then it slammed back down on it’s wheels and I quickly escaped. The helmets we are required to wear saved me most likely. My airbags did not go off, only the passenger side. I don’t seem to have any injuries, I’m gonna be sore and achy in a bit probly. My car is thrashed right now though. Wheel DESTROYED and the other are unknown. The car is at a shop being evaluated. I don’t really have any money to go about fixing it, even if the frame and engine are okay. We’re gonna check options, but yeah. I have a backup vehicle I can borrow to still get around, but yeah I might be kinda depressed for a while and I’m so mad at myself for this slip. I endangered myself and others, and now it’s gonna cost me. Alas.

Glad you're ok.  You may want to go get a checkup to make sure no neck or back injury or broken bones. They can be hidden with the shock and may seem to just be extra aches and pains you think will go away.
