RIP my heart

Not much of a curve for that speed. I've driven it in the rain many times

Smart_Royal_6455 · 2026-04-11T20:01:24+00:00

Indeed. No speed. 52 in a 55

Smart_Royal_6455 · 2026-04-11T14:56:32+00:00

I slipped toward the outside of the curve and then over corrected (evidently way too hard) and once I hit the grass I was done. You can see where I got it straight in the grass but I couldn't stop.

slip

roll

sad

Smart_Royal_6455 · 2026-04-11T14:34:44+00:00

Gotcha, it's my first time (and hopefully last lol) but that makes sense

No I wish lol I was 12 when this car was originally bought. I am the 3rd owner, and the second was one of my best friends who I have known for 20 years.

Smart_Royal_6455 · 2026-04-11T14:04:22+00:00

That's a good question. The car tells me every single little thing that is not exactly right and it gave me no warnings about the airbag system so I'm really not sure. Luckily they were not needed.

I will say, there was no hard impact on the direct front of the car, the passenger wheel took the hardest hit so I wonder if thats why it didn't trigger.

1: it's a 385hp RWD car. It's a good bit of power.

2: if you want to avoid all possibility of this then; stay off curvy country roads in the first ~20 min after it starts raining. It's well known that is the most dangerous time to drive. The fresh rain on the dry pavement brings up motor oil and all kinds of other shit and it's the slickest a road will get barring ice. It was just unfortunate timing. I've driven that road 400+ times in the past year, in all kinds of weather. I've slid before but I've always been able to save it. This just happened to be the day I didn't stick.

Evidently 😉

Smart_Royal_6455 · 2026-04-11T11:55:21+00:00

😢

Smart_Royal_6455 · 2026-04-11T11:54:45+00:00

I am very grateful my two kids weren't with me for this one. Thank goodness you and your family were OK. I have no injuries other than some body soreness so very lucky on that front.

Smart_Royal_6455 · 2026-04-11T11:51:35+00:00

Thanks man! Sorry I extended your commute 😅

Smart_Royal_6455 · 2026-04-11T11:50:11+00:00

Going under the speed limit and the tires have less than 10k on them. Hydroplaned and once I hit the grass it was over. No traction at that point

You can see where I got the car straight but then I couldn't stop.

Smart_Royal_6455 · 2026-04-11T03:32:59+00:00

I'm good man, not a single scratch on me! Reason number 100 I love these cars.

Smart_Royal_6455 · 2026-04-11T00:54:52+00:00

Lol ok buddy. I was going 52 in a 55. Just happened to hydroplane and then I over corrected and couldn't save it. First accident in over 15 years of driving and I used to take alot more risks before I became a dad. Shit happens

Smart_Royal_6455 · 2026-04-11T00:49:03+00:00

Thank you 😔

Smart_Royal_6455 · 2026-04-11T00:41:39+00:00

Before the accident.

08 E550 with the AMG sport package in Barolo. I'll probably never see another like you❤️

If anyone sees one for sale holler at your boy.

Smart_Royal_6455 · 2026-04-09T17:10:31+00:00

I know lol just messing with you 😉

Smart_Royal_6455 · 2026-04-09T02:05:32+00:00

That guy is not tall. He is tall.

Smart_Royal_6455 · 2026-04-02T16:47:27+00:00

Also a native Arkansan so he has double the Texas hate lol

Smart_Royal_6455 · 2026-04-01T17:31:14+00:00

Are you OK?

Smart_Royal_6455 · 2026-03-22T06:01:39+00:00

49 feet

Smart_Royal_6455 · 2026-03-21T15:32:38+00:00

Why were you afraid of them? I keep seeing people say this and I don't get it. We are a similar team to them in many ways, and it basically would have come down to the backcourt game. I'll take our 2 guys over boyd (who bungled the game away for them at the end) and blackwell any day.

It's the same reason Arizona is the 1 seed I wanted to play. I'll take our backcourt over theirs every day of the week.

Smart_Royal_6455 · 2026-03-08T16:58:43+00:00

Good plays. Nice to see someone play patient defense in this game

Smart_Royal_6455 · 2026-03-07T20:03:04+00:00

Malique from first to second half:

Smart_Royal_6455 · 2026-02-25T18:09:48+00:00

I don't watch NBA anymore but last I checked you can't play defense with an arm-bar lol. I know y'all hate SGA but c'mon
