Cars already been written off by the insurance company Did'nt think I was doing anything too dumb, but the backend just let go big time.Also copped a $130 odd fine for 'not being in control of my vehicle' or the like. Not a good day all round for me........

As long as no one was hurt from the accident is the main thing..that's why my T stays in the garage when it rains and I take out the missus's focus.. Less pwr to deal with.Hope to see you in a T soon cikas
