Default when was your last bad day?

yesterday i thought i was having a problem with my starter...got it tested=good. then i stick my hand in the tranny (where starter goes into) the freakin flywheel spins! i know the flywheel spins but youre not suppose to spin it that easily. GREAT! flywheels busted. so i get it towed to my moms to take my cbr home then my back tires flat. im going to sleep...

probably had to be last saturday. i was driving home from work when this damn jeep cherokee decides to swerve rite in front of me and slams on its brakes 3 secs later. tried to stop but it was too late. my car slid underneath the cherokee. damage wasnt as bad as i had thot. hood is dented n scratched up front, few scratches on front bumper, n cracked passenger fog lamp. so yeh..that was my last bad day so far..

i have no idea what would cause my flywheel to separate though...i dynoed at 205whp...exedy stage 4 racing clutch...oem flywheel...now i would think that the oem would able to handle just a lil bit more power than that

I had a bad month er so back in april..

I got a beefy all motor build, and i was so excited about it. But as soon as i got it back, i had problems after problems.
first day i got it back i blew an oil line. Then the crank pulley fell off while i was driving, Then my clutch cable snaps at a toll booth, then my throttle cable was rubbing on the hood, and started to cut through, then i snap an axle on my way to put a new tranny in. Then after putting the tranny in we forgot to hook up the ground wire, so i fried my alternator and some fan switches.

all of this within about a month.. needless to say, i got to know John from John's towing pretty well.. He even gave me my own flat rates

All the glitches seem to be worked out now *knock on wood*

well this wasnt this year but back in 2003 and i was 16 at the time. I was waiting for a friends to pick me up for school and when he gets to my house be bolts in my door saying that one of our friends was in a accident right up the road. It was pretty bad to, he was in a 87 5.0 mustang and he got T-boned and pined in the car. He broke his tail bone, pelvice,ruptered splene and had a concusion. Well we go to school and im all worried about my friend, im in 1st period which was weightlifting and we are runnign up and down the speps in the stadium. Well im not concentrating and i land wrong on a stair and i roll over on my ankle and i hear POP POP SNAP. By the time i got to the office it was the size of a softball and i ended up tearing linkages near my ankle. So i go home. Well not 2 hours later i find my mom in a coma on the couch, she had had a ceasure. I had to call 911. If i hadnt come home early no one would have been home and she would have died on the couch. I lost my mom last febuary (2-17-05). I got her name and a cross tattoed on my arm so shell allways be with me.

Last Friday when I got my car back when my tranny swap was done. It started fine every time except when I was leaving my ex-girlfriends house. I get in there, turn the key and nothing.

I could hear my fuel pump prime, my battery was fine and so was my starter. I was under the impression it was my safety switch for the clutch. I got down there and looked around, everything looked fine.

I tried to start it again, and it did. Strange.

My recent worst day was 2 weeks ago when I found out one of my best friends got arrested for the murder of one of my high school friends.
