Talking Petter Solberg has got nuthin on me!!

Driving home last night I had an incident.
Long story short, I wasgoing through a set of "S" turns...at 30mph..., zigged when I should've zagged, lifted off the throttle, and ran out of road.
Oh, and after the dust settled, I drove it 6.3 miles to my house.

Here's what's left:

Holy crap, Paul! I just saw your car in one piece yesterday evening! What the hell happened besides exchanging a zig for a zag? IMO, a zag is never as good as a zig... I think my point is proven here.

Just happy it was your wheel that got jacked and not you.

Now it needs some plastic surgery.
