Default Get Well Soon Garik!

All i can say is holy sh!t.

Our friend Garik (M3_killer) was in a serious accident. He went up to angeles crest with his buddies (in his ti, yes). What happen was he hit a patch of ice and it spun his rear end. The car rolled down the mountain. He rolled down for 800 feet. He didn't break any bones but he did suffer from internal bleeding in his head. He got a concusion. He has been in the hospital for almost a week now. He had surgery in his head to prevent brain damage. If i heard correctly, i think i heard something about he might or might not recover any feeling on his left side of his face. As of right now he's in a lot of pain.

All i can say is from everything i was told, garik is lucky to be alive. The ti is dead. That doesn't matter to me, aslong as he's ok.

I know he cant read this right now but, I wish you the best buddy, hope you recover well and soon. Well pay you a visit on saturday if you're home by friday. Good luck G and stay up!

It doesn't need park distance control, and hates decadence. It is musclepacked, yet lightly wound. It lets you feel the asphalt and get you going with the smallest touch of the pedal. It provokes, seduces, and demands to be driven hard. It looks, sounds, and smells like performance.

Yeah. i was glad to hear he will be okay. But not just "okay", but at least he is alive and can recover. We all just want our friend to get better and get back on his feet.
Although we pick on you Garik, we're all your friends.
And i thank his sister, Meg, for informing me and Hugo about his mishap on angeles crest.
