Serious question... Are you short? Or was the belt very slack?

Either way, that's some serious lucky unluckiness :!:
I'm 6ft lol
Harness pulled me back and fire chief said if I was wearing a seat belt I was dead, apparently those takata reps saved me from going through the window

no roll cage but passenger side roof was squished in a good bit, drivers side was mostly ok

Happened on Sunday night there, going rounf a corner and rear end kicked out for some reason and pointed me at a 45 degree angle at another car... kids behind a wall to my right, car ahead and a telegraph pole to my left.
Chose left and luckily missed the pole by 3 ft hit the bank at 40 and flipped

Got another prelude now but first thing I'm gonna do is build a proper cage lol

Yeah buddy just me in it and missed the other car/wall with kids on other side thank god

Girlfriend saw it all in rear view mirror and was in hysterics though

Already got another but it's another 98 vti h22a5
Feels slower than the black one but currently that's a good thing lol
Only 2ws as well so bit of a plus as well at the min

When they come up for sale over here they are buttons lol
This one was 500 and drives like new, less powerful than the black one but definately more comfortable

Another 4th gen for sale with a full race spec but it's the older shape I done really like... but it was 600 lol
