OMG Crash!

As soon as Magellan Linden disclosed the coordinates of the new continent to the public i was awed by its beauty, and decided to go explore it's roads to see if they were eligible for a special leg of my Drive Around the World tour...
As soon as i got there i noticed that they weren-t an easy drive. The ancient surface made of rocks didn-t offer a good grip to the hard rubber of the Bridgestone Potenza of my Supra... Darn...
Despite this i tried to push harder on the gas, but in proximity of a soft turn in Hera i felt my tires losing grip with the road completely. The only thing i could do was to brace for the impact.



When i regained my senses and opened the car door with a kick i was enveloped by black smoke that made me cough. I leaped out to see my beloved Supra completely wrecked against a tree... I was not wounded, beside a couple of bruises here and there, but the car didn't sure look in good conditions....

As soon as i got out i heard the sound of engines, as Launa Fauna and Francis Chung, that were riding their motorbikes nearby came to see what happened, a few seconds later even Rickard Roentgren landed his Hammerhead near us to see if i needed any help...



Luckily, in the bad luck, the car didnt't seem about to explode, so other people gathered around me to make sure i was ok, and i was, even if the worse wound was in my pride...



Cursing my carelessness i inspected the wreck, and quickly assessed that the car was beyond repair. The damage wass too extensive and serious, so i decided to leave it there (Hera 5, 21) until the Linden Recovery Service will retrieve the wreckage...

Now i find myself without a car to countinue my tour... will this be the end of my Drive around the world?

Stay tuned!

  1. I'm assuming the car was collected. I'm at the spot where you crashed (the coordinates you mentioned in your post), and I don't see it. There IS a giant penis nearby, but I don't really recognise the area from your shots. You seem to have crashed down an incline, and the land at the side of the road here goes up, not down.

    Cool story all the same. Wish I had a decent car in the game.
