Today started off good...I checked out of school early becuase no one was there and we weren't doing anything. So I checked out. Well my dad calls my cell and says UPS just delievered a package for me. When I get home it turns out to be my new Deltagate wastegate I ordered. SO all I need now is my BOV and manifold and the turbo project is complete. Well, I decide hey, you only live once. So I call in to spend the night with my girlfriend. Well were driving along about 7:30 and all of a sudden...thump! As I keep rolling a hear....kalump, kalump, kalump.....So I pull over...there is a bolt sticking through my tire. Well everywhere decides they want to close at 8:00. So there is nothing I can do. So we go back to her house. Well on the way home this BMW Z3 pulls up beside me at the light and wants to race.....we see the light about to change and get ready....the light turns green....he takes off...bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz......then me kalump............kalump........kalump...kalump..k alump..kalump. I just hope they can fix it.....$150 tire will set me back.

same here, just received a ticket for 65 in a 45 in someone elses car. Actually is was in Bdstbtch's car. Her damn speedo doesn't work and I really thought I was doing about the speed limit which I though was 55. So, he wrote me up for 55 in a 45 and it is only $51.50. The bitch of it is, I just paid my last ticket and completed the traffic school video 2 nights ago. Speaking of traffic school video, did you know gravity is one of the forces that holds our vehicle to the road? I surely didn't, thank you video for such an infomative night. Oh yeah, the cop, haha. After writing my ticket, he zips off from behind me (didn't even let me get on the road yet) and takes off after a volvo. He didn't even turn off his lights, just went straight after him.
