I managed to be going ~40MPH and hit a patch of leaves and slide into a curb. I knew it was bad news when I saw sparks flying and my front driverside wheel kept rolling.
$8.00 axle. Maybe yours was a lemon.

Come to Gosnold Hope Park with us one night. Soko2000 has (or had) a savage, and THSpoq had his mini out one night.
The both of them have been through like 9,000 cars. Ive seen some crazy shit.
