So how does the money change hands in this situation? Both are screwed right?
Now don't get me wrong....these guys prolly have enough money to rebuild the car this weekend and go run some 6's the week after.....I'm not gonna argue that.
Say you have 2 cars that are drag racing each other....illegally on a DOT road....both cars registered and insured......car in the other lane tail whips and T-bones you. Could you file an insurance claim? Take them to court?
I know what I would do if it was MY fault......pay for their car. Either by cash or taking out a personal loan to the best of my abilities. Back in my street racing days I was fortunate enough to not ever hafta deal with that situation but I was involved in a few where the after race "pay outs" didn't happen or their "crew" didn't wanna pony up the cash after a sore loss. "Buddies" became very unfriendly after that and was why I always had 5+ big guys with me. I'm no Tyson....but I can defend myself in apples/apples situations. Been knocked down a few times.....put a few down as well.
Can't remember what I squeezed on the bathroom scale, but I don't remember advertising the number so it must not've been that impressive.
