    Red face I Broke my a$$..

    ..and my car

    Oopsy, i blame peer pressure

    Yesterday avo, after sticking in my nicely repainted teins i decided to dispatch my mates new Audi 1.8t on the way back to my place, which i did quite comfortably , however after going round the next big corner i went down a big dip, and with an wagon full of people and slightly lower suspension, smacked the ground really, really hard.

    I swear my ass mustv hit the ground cause it felt like friggin concrete, and unfortunately did some damage..

    Put a bunch of dents in my exhaust and muffler, scrapped the crap out of most of the rear under tray stuff, and put a 20cm crack in the windscreen

    Was a bit lucky it wasnt worse really given the stupidity of how fast i was going, but at least my back will remind me for a little while

    Plus now the teins are rattling and banging pretty loud, and it looks (and sounds) like the rear springs arent captive anymore, so they'll have to come out today

    that must be a CVR4 first

    Good thing control was kept, and minimal damage. Hopefully the shocks just wedged itself into the hub a bit more, causing it to be outta line and that might be making your funny noises.?
