Ok, let me set the scene out a little. I live in BFE 20 miles away from civilization in the hills of Oklahoma. On my way to work my car just died, timing belt broke. In an attempt to save some cash I decided to call my mom, who lives close, and have her pull me back home. That was my first mistake. She pulls up in her big truck with some chain. My car is lowered so I could not attach the chain to the front so we decide we can pull it backwards, after all we're only 5 miles from my house. My second mistake. We get hooked up and off we go. No big problems at first but all that was about to change. She starts accelorating DOWN HILL on a curve. We must have been near 50 mph and the car starts going all over the road. It's all I can do to keep it somewhat under control. Then she hits then brakes. Oh what fun, I slammed right into her trailer hitch. Then of all things she guns it and ripps the tow hook right off the car. So now I'm almost out of controll backwards and getting dangerously close to a big drop. Luckily my brakes had just enough left to get me stopped before I flipped over. I decided at that point to just leave it and get home. I did finally get the car back home and called a wrecker to come in the A.M and take it to the shop. I guess the lessons of the story are don't let your mom pull you especially backwards down a hill and if you know your timing belt is going out fix it before you drive. I have learned some expensive lessons today.

 

i actually bothered to read this... now lets see some pics..

 

ya seriously. i wanna see some pics!!

 

Damage to the body is minimal but any damage is bad to me. Got a nice imprint of a trailer hitch on the back bumper. It's a little too dark to take pics of the body but I can throw up a pic of the rear hook and sheet metal it was attatched to thats now on my floor.

Sorry to waste your time. Thought it was a comical chain of events. I'll stick to "which tires will fit my car" posts from now on. Or better yet can I fit a blown LS2 in my EM2 or can my stock D17 handle 30 PSI and still get 100K miles.

 

it was pretty funny. mustve been a scary ride. break it up into paragraphs next time

the car's body was not where the damage was done; you're probably physiologically damaged from that experience LMFAO!

 

Sounds like you had yourself a nice little evening.
