what the hell was up with all the damn snow this morning?
And, when I was driving the SS to work this morning, I noticed a vibration in the rear end area...it was only when I was at part throttle or no throttle though. When im at about 20% or more throttle, it doesnt do it. And it stops when I hit the brakes. Its nothing crazy, almost like if I was going around a semi-tight turn and the tires were skipping bc of the spool. But like I said, its only part throttle, or no throttle, and it stops when I hit the brakes.
This is also the first time I have drove the car when it was really cold out, if that makes a difference... any ideas anyone?

yea, 1 stud was sheared all the way off, one was half way gone, and the others were bent and messed up. And nope, I havent even driven the car since that night to Red Robin. Well, I drove it to the car wash and to the store one day. And I was cruising on 664 on the MMBT and it just all went to hell
Geico covered the tow to VA Speed for free though

You Hampton Roads guys ever meet up anywhere on weekends other than BPS? Was curious if you ever get together and go to hooters for some wings and beer or anything like that. I am pretty new to the F body scene in Hampton roads since I just got my Camaro in Nov but was curious if there are ever get togethers at all.

no, i just dropped the car off. Nothing seems to be damaged except the studs, and the inside of the wheel is marred up a little bit... we will worry about price later when we figure out what caused it. Mike @ VA speed said there shouldnt have been any reason for it to happen...so we will see..
here are some pics i took with my phone..
how they towed it from the bridge was actually pretty neat.
And for those of you with Geico...i HIGHLY recommend paying the 5$ extra a month for their roadside assistance.. the tow from 664 to VA Speed was free
