Not cruiser related, but car related for all you motor heads. This was what I was up to this weekend. Unfortunately a guy in a BMW performed an excellent pit maneuver on me. I manged to tag all 4 corners. Before, after and a little in car video. Sorry the before is the only recent picture I have access to right now.

Makes my broken rear axle and screwed up diff seem small by comparison.

I had been strugling with the justification for this for awhile. With my daughter heading off to college next year, I was pretty much planning on selling it all at the end of this season. Unfortunately, it looks like I'll get more time in the shed selling it off piece by piece. The car has a lot of good parts left, but the body is a complete write off.
 
Man that really sucks. I hope the Bimmer has got some of your paint on him. I can see getting spun in a turn but it's almost intentional on a straightaway. I'm sure it's far too labor intensive and costly to repair or replace the body.
 
Ouch....that brings back memories of blowing 1/2 shafts out of my X1/9 in SCCA. Glad that your OK. Good luck on your plans!
 
wow! I know it was a green flag, but come on man - learn to brake on a straight away BMW!!
