A) The car gods are angry that you're going to firestone for something that simple
B) You can PIITB of anything. That statement clearly shows lack of experience/class/talent. Talk to me.

Shitty. I know how it goes.
Woke up this morning to go take my car for a spin around my small block, since we did a few upgrades last night.
get about 1/2way around the block before I realize that the drunks helping me last night put my driver's side wheel on, but didnt tighten it down.
Tired to limp it home the last 1/8mile (since Im lazy and didnt want to alk all the way home to get the lug wrench) only to have the wheel pop off. damaged my driver's side fender, put a gouge in the inside of the wheel, cut my tire a little, and damaged my brand new rotor
When it rains, it pours...

Haha, yeah.
I know **** happens, but it sucks. Used to it, but you still can't resist the urge to take a step back and say "F this."
And I'd hate that defiler. Too much loss for one very small mistake.. :tdown: Alcohol + Cars = Never good.
Whitenoyz, I know. I shouldn't've been lazy and just done it myself. After the cost of the repairs however that my engine needs total, as well as the amount of work, I've decided it's gonna receive a ZE. Not gonna be lazy with that though, learned my lesson with that.
And I'd rather not piitb of anything I see.
Cell phone for example. Just, please, no...
you would be surprised what the vibration function has to offer....
lolseriously, dont work on your car after getting drunk. I tried tuning my car with megatune after getting hammerd. (sober driver of course, and uh, I was drunk at maybe noon?)..long story short...nothing was accomplished but some drunk boosting,
[shizzle]ty. I know how it goes.

i've learned to double check my wheels. I had a buddy that did soemthing like that once. we weren't drunk but he just finger tightend my wheels on. I also drove away and then went i'll just check...............yup one wheel two lugnuts had already started to spin off. Thank god i checked otherwise my old accord woulda had some probs.
I've actually drove off once with the lug nut key still on the one with the lock. I got about 12 miles and I heard something coming from the right front. Pulled over at the next street to check it out, my friend stayed inside the car.
Long story short, it lasted that long, unbelievably, staying on the tire. Luckily it didn't shoot off at anyone. But, I ended up getting back in the car, and saying it was just something that had popped out of place causing the noise, that I pushed back in.
Never specified, and definitely didn't say it was the key to the lug nut still on the wheel, lmao.
Wasn't drunk for that, just thought I had grabbed it already.
Not double checking yourself ftl.
At least you do get to do some boosting though, King. I'd imagine drunk boosting was entertaining, even if it didn't get anywhere.

it was actually kinda stressfull..At least you do get to do some boosting though, King. I'd imagine drunk boosting was entertaining, even if it didn't get anywhere.
Im all for getting drunk and working on someone elses car.. Its best when the beer is part of the deal
Well, aren't all boosted 6's stressful anyways? :tdown:
I personally like working on other people's cars when their fridge and pantry are on limits when we take a break.
Oh god, the carnage. It's soo wonderful.

Yeah... and thats what got me into my predicament. I paid them in beer, but because of it they did a shitty job
lol i dont drink so i dont have that problem but when my friends come over i usualy have some gingerales and gummybears.
Ah, I went down to the pick and pull Sunday and nabbed one up, as well as a new spare. There were three LS's up there(Not one RS, believe it or not. Normally there isn't but one between 1st and 2nd gen in there.) All three were in front end wrecks. Two of them however were black with black leather interiors. Kind of decided then that that's what I'll go for, haha.
One had a really nice black interior, prestine everything except for missing the front seats. Had I had the time I definitely would've pulled that as well...
Eh, I like getting paid in meals rather than drinks. I dunno, I just enjoy a full stomach better than one that's regurgitating the next morning.
