What a major f--k up. I really wonder what the damage costs are. Probably have to replace fenders, brake rotors and some suspension pieces. It's a nice car too.

Yeah... that's pretty serious for a prank. I guess I'll be checking my lugs before auto-x'ing next time. I think each lug needs to be torqued down to 80 ft-lbs.

rule #1: when shooting video of a failure, focus on the source of failure.

i wanted to see the studs and see if they sheared off. instead, the video guy shot everything from the people, the number of the car, in the interior and the far-away shots of the wheels...

sheez....
