Sounds like it could easily hapen, nothing shady at all, on a modded car you get all sorts of things that can go wrong at the worst times, sure we all have been there at some point when some thing stupid broke and required a fix at a very inconvient time. Hope for the best, gotta keep that big peace handy for situations like these.

hopefully he recovers quickly, and it's true u have to protect ur ****, the problem is not that he stood up for himself, the problem is that society is full of scumbags that should be skinned and covered in salt! people are seriuosly going to **** at such a high rate. hopefully the guy who tried robbing him gets in a horrible accident but lives through it only to realize that he cant undo his seatbelt, then his car catches on fire and he slowly burns to death

I've started a collection for Brandon and his family to help them get through all this. Visit Fearlessperformance.org for details...... or if you ever see me out at any local meets, i'll be collecting anywhere you can find me.

PM me for details if you'd like to help, and aren't familiar with me or our organization. I'd be happy to meet up with you guys or have you join us for our cruise this saturday and introduce myself.

Brandon is certainly in my thoughts and prayers.

.

I have had to perform an "emergency repair" many times before. That is a real shame. The world is a nasty neighborhood.

Its not worth your life, and you should take advantage of your state and conceal with a permit. It isn't guaranteed safety, but sometimes it makes a difference.

Dayum that sucks, a couple years ago two guys bumped my back bumper and tried to jack me. SOB;s came out with a gun, good thing I looked in the rearview mirror before getting out.I just hit the gas and kept on going.

We will be praying for you bro.
