Nice, your car doesn't look so very high anymore. Looks like a mean stance.

Well guys, i took the car out tonight and ****** wrecked it One of my braded lines got cought up in my throttle linkage and stuck my throttle open. So i threw my car in netural and turned the key off and what happens........ locks my ****** wheel. So i ran into a curb, bounced off the curb and got the key turned back on and steared it back into the street and went to slid it back off the road but came to a stop right before the parking lot then i ended up getting rear ended and pushed me into another curb and the guy ends up taking off. So now my front right wheels is trashed, broke my stearing knuckle and brake line and the back of the car is smashed in. So now bring on the trash talkers about me bein a idiot about turning my key back but put yourself in my shoes...... i just wasnt thinking and wanted to save my motor from blowin and didnt even think about the wheel locking. But on the good side i was on my way to do some nitrous passes so its better it happened at 50mph and not 150mph in the woods!! So im happy about that. So enjoy the pics cause from here on there not gonna be soo good.

How bad is the rear of the car? Get a quote to fix it.......It might be cheaper to buy a 6 cylinder roller chassis and swap all your stuff into it....then 6 cylinder insurance rates he he.
