im sure theres a lot more damange then you can see. its tough spot to have anything fixed...and most likely you will be able to find another shell cheaper then the work.


and cisco no problem man, i deff understand i crashed my car on my own stupity and i couldnt stand people even bringing it up for months.

That is so ****ty!! Im sorry Devin.....

I know the truth of the matter is that you are alright, and that really is because as we all know that could have been worse. Mid track, end of the track, different lane....

But anyone who builds a car and puts everything they have into it, money and love i hate to see it happen. Especially to such a nice guy, if there is anything you need that I could help with hit me up buddy. I know Eric has a truck and trailer to get a new shell but if you need to use mine its yours! Its not the prettiest set up but it will go anywhere especially to pick up a shell.....

Glad to hear you are alright buddy!

Wow glad you're alright Devin. I'm sure you wouldn't have stepped foot on the 1320 if you didn't accept that something like this could happen. Ether way its only metal. You'll soon find another dsm (hopefully another talon) in need of a heart transplant, bust out a 9.0 and forget the crash ever happened.

first of all, i'd like to thank everyone for their support- devin and i greatly appreciate it. i loved watching the progress of that car, and had no problem sharing devin with her lol.
its sad that she won't be in the garage again. she truly was the sickest, cleanest 2G that ever lived and had one hell of an amazing year breaking records! but you better believe that devin will continue to do what he loves and will be back with one hell of a race car!!

unfortunately there is more damage done to the car then what you can see, and to fix it all may not be worth it since there is no guarantee she'll be as reliable as she was on the track, besides cost being the biggest issue. i'm glad to hear that someone got a video of the aftermath cuz i'm no camera man - just a fiancé that was scared ****less once i saw the impact on the camera screen. that’s an image i just can’t get outta my head.

but above all, devin walked away from this cuz we all know how much worse it could've been. i am truly thankful for that and the support that everyone has shown on so many different forums. he had an angel watching over him cuz we all know that cars can be replaced but you can't replace someone like devin.

thanks again to everyone for all of the support and well wishes. you'll be seeing another sick 2G soon enuf!

That SUCKS. Luckily you weren't hurt. Car looks fixable though, just some welding.

Good luck.

I can't believe the other driver was being an *** when it was his fault for not even knowing how to control his junk box.... Good to hear devin is ok and hopefully a new car can be found and he can continue racing and his goal's of extremely low 9's/ possible 8's?

Its really sucks but at the end of the days its just a car. They can always be fixed or replaced.
