Wadda ya mean? I finished first! 
I was doing mach chicken in 6th when I dropped the right rear wheel into the crevice of a R6 short. Bounced the rear end up and sideways, momentum just spun the car around, went in backwards at ALLOFTHESPEED. The front guys are hauling ass, major step up in speed. Damage isn't too bad, rear trunk is pushed in a foot due to tree love. What you guys didn't hear about was the carnage BEFORE the event even started during the drivers meeting. Everything was going swimmingly until my car rolled across the parking lot and annihilated the front of the car... twice. But even with the front end falling off, I was having a blast. Really picked up the pace on the 2nd stage. But alas, another stupid mistake. I'll get it figured eventually. Also, Monsieur Clark's Toyota thing, unless I'm mistaken, he said it has a 22re in it. How he blew up a truck motor I don't know, but I'm sure I'll find out

Er um, wanna 'splain that?
In all seriousness, that's the best answer...so there's hope. I sometimes point out---usually the car does do anything all by it self. SOMEBODY fired it up, put in gear and drove it into the _______ (fill in the blank). Usually.
Down here most people are way casual with anti-freeze and as long as its green they don't worry. But the anti-oxidants that are in antifreeze get used up and the aluminum starts to dissolve from natural electrolysis and some engines suffer badly in the heads, 22r being one, and in the water pump housings--and 22R suffers there too...and they usually get told "the head cracked" Who knows, maybe it wasn't this but I have seen a lot of rotted heads where it looks like craters of the moon inside the head.. You don't have to worry since those Sub-a-rat things are all aluminum...they just snap the cheesoid cranks, and bend the taffy rods.

Oh it's Atom. Its those wheels, old school, better dump 'em. Any clearer-er reports on what happened to New and Improved DC?
