Hopefully before that happens you dont kill someone else on the road. Luckily for me you dont live in my state.


Jason, you jump very quickly from asking questions to making conclusions. Is Scott at fault? We don't know. Does he drag race at the lights? We don't know. And then bang... with maturity... Scott's 12? And...

Context is really difficult online, I ain't on anyone's side, but the history of Scott's issue should be taken into account when reading his posts on this. And right or wrong they've been worth reading.

Well the s-awc sounds like it does some great things, and I've been following an EVO X and seen it go through a 90 deg corner quite amazingly, but with this (however unlikely) risk of failure, I think I'm glad I don't have it!

i dont know im not making or passing judgement on anyone here all i can say is if you were driving straight and then u lost control then its probably bad luck with poor driving conditions, but if you were going into a corner and caused that much damage to your car then i can only assume black ice was on the road.

Dude! Seriously now: i cant explain this shit any more simple

Road conditions: STRAIGHT, DRY, TRAVELING SPEED LIMIT, NO OTHER CONTRIBUTING FACTORS!


1.There was a mechanical failure while driving straight (shit breaks on cars, weather wear and tear or fault or abuse PERIOD!!!!)

2. The S-AWC ECU did NOT recognize it as a failure/broken part, the s-awc ecu recognized it as a VARIATION AND SENT THE CAR HAY WIRE! (THIS IS WHAT WE ARE LOOKING INTO AND WHY DOESNT IT HAVE A "SAFE MODE")


3. Driver CORRECTIVE ACTIONS where CONFLICTING with S-AWC ECU vis-versa!


The IMPACT DAMAGE ON CAR IS NO MORE THAN 57-63km/h! INTO 2 SOLID OBJECTS. SPEED WAS NOT A FACTOR OF THIS CRASH!

If you cant understand the above then you should really learn to read and understand!

oh and my insurance got denied not because of ANYTHING relating to the crash it self what so ever, it got denied for other various reasons that have nothing what so ever to do with the crash, i am smashing this in court bit by bit,

in the mean while i have a team working on my car to find why WHY THE HELL DID THE CAR BEHAVE LIKE IT DID DURING A FAILURE!!!


And black-art!


You have read beebles post propley, :one of hes wires came loose while driving (TRACK, NO TRACK IT DOESNT MATTER THE CAR WAS IN MOTION PERIOD).....It was loose becuase of a brace rubbing on it, (AS I SAY AGAIN WHY DOESN'T THE CAR JUST GO INTO SAFE MODE?)

We are going to test a brand spanka evo 10 in controlled conditions and environment and start trying "VARIOUS TESTS" and see how the car behaves.......But first we need to find out the BRAKE DOWN OF THE S-AWC ECU and how it communicates with the main ECU....(and the reason to understand the brake down before we test it is so that we know WHAT TO EXPECT during a failure)


But dont worry im sure you already knew all of this about how a ECU brake down works

Well as I said before we don't know as we weren't there - however you'd have to be pretty sure you were in the right if you were going to take it up in the courts, with all the associated costs etc. I mean if I was even a bit unsure if I was at fault I wouldn't push it, but that's just me.

thats what we are doing! first understand the brake down of the ecu and learn from it and know 110% what to expect, then purposely run "faults to confirm how it behaves"


well im not sure if they have spoken to mitshi designers, mabey they have im not too sure, but i know im doing my process which will be 110% correct and accurate facts that will stand in court!


They have a BRAND SPANKA with them to run these tests!



Could take years who knows?
