Thinking about making some sticker that say #WRECKED and #TOTALLED

Probably put one where my Racecar sticker was... I have had 5 different stickers there over the years...

I was thinking. ya know the saying/phenomenon that girls like "bad boys" even though it's dumb for them to do so? well I thought that the male equivalent is that guys like "crazy bitches" even though it's always a disaster. men and women, totally different yet exactly the same.

Jan checked everything out, including shocks and other parts of the suspension and then also checked all the wheel studs.

All the suspension stuff looked good. Only a scrape on the bottom panel/tray.

He said it may have been that the wheel studs weren't torqued due to possibly getting (partially) un-seated during the off-track incident and may have worsened over the past couple weeks.

I don't know how valid that is but since I don't really know much myself I'll take it, lol.

The sound/feeling is gone now as far as I can tell.
