Default GRAH! HATE!

I'm pritty livid right now.

I bought my car with a set of brand new Kuhmo MX's on it. Well, today, One of my tires popped of the rim while going over a hill, causing a rather spectacular spin out, and ended up with me in the ditch with no front bumper and a pritty much wrecked radiator support. The exhaust needs to be replaced aswell. Really rather pissed off. It still drives straight, so I'm pritty sure there is no frame damage. It managed to kill my digital camera in the process to. So to the guys that passed me on the way to the Maple Grove show that pulled over and took pictures and such, please feel free to post them.

It should be going to the body shop tomarrow.

Pritty Livid.

But youre ok right? I wrecked my s2k at a pretty high rate of speed, walked away without a scratch. Thumbs up to honda engineers for designing a fun/safe car. Its just a car bro, it can be fixed/replaced, your life cannot.

The hill I went over was on a 45 mph road, I was doin 50, the hill needs signs because I caught air off of the top, and when I hit the ground, the tire popped the bead. If the tire had stayed intact, none f this would have happened. If the hill had a sign saying, dude, hill has crazy drop off afterwards, this wouldn't of happened.

There were acouple of guys going to the same show I was going to who also had some trouble with that hill. 2 others got air, and my buddy who came with some jumper cables to get her back started caught air, and he was only doin 40.

So yeah, Just gotta wait for the insurance company to fix her. Guess the Dodge is goin back on the road.
