Well, like Cosea, I too ran into a car tire today, not a Vette mind you, but a junk toyota. The funny thing, is that I thought I ripped my tire too, but it turns out that when the shock popped some oil smeared on the side wall of the tire. In the dark it looked split.

Bravo! Bravo! You broke your "Oh poop did I just???" cherry!

Congrats!

Mine was a fence post at a baseball diamond......

No matter how you slice it, it sucks. But hey, time for some RPM parts maybe????
 
Well, I too had my first breakage on an off-road truck. I launched off a 4' ramp 6' in the air. Didnt seem like much but i was going WOT. I hit a tree and the damn Rusty did two backflippers and landed on its face. Broke the suspension and lost the screw that holds the shock onto the A-Arm. Where can i get a replacement?

Your lucky, I only do stupid things when everyone is watching.
