Well, a little too much pedal and not enough traction and just a wee bit of gravel on the shoulder.........over the side walk, over the berm, down the hill into the ditch....

Thanks on the flames...I designed them and drew them on paper, the painter transfered to the car....this was my first flame design....I would do them just a little different next time......but I think they are pretty good for a rookie...

Don't know the brand of the tips, just told the local muffler shop to replace the damaged ones with 4" rolled edge round tips 20" long....they were about $30 each.....
