Well, its been a long time since I have been here. That was because I could not even drive my dakota (underage) But, I'm now a licensed 16 year old driver. I find it quite ironic that my return was fueled by an accident.
SO, there I was after school before the Christmas holidays pulling donuts in the parking lot. It has snowed a bunch recently and I was having fun in the icy/ snowy parking lot. There was no vehicles around and I had to wait for the buses to leave before I could leave the lot. So, I make some wonderful marks in the snow and I am almost done and I want to make one sweet last drift. I am going about 15km/hr in this drift and then the ass end comes whipping around and smashed into a cement parking stop that was covered by snow. So, after regaining some sense I start to drive away from my parked position (not knowing of the smashed rim) the security dick comes into the lot waving at me to go talk to him. I neglectfully go talk to him. His first words were "what are you doing?" so, I reply "having fun because I don't have to be here for another 2 weeks!". The guy sends me to go talk to the principal who was waiting outside. I go and explain how it is the end of school, there was nobody around, and who was I hurting. She replied "well, a kid could jump out of nowhere." and she lets me leave. As I drive away from the school I am fishtailing like mad and I'm not even stomping on the gas. I pull into a parking lot to look and the tire is flat and about 10" of rim have broken away. So, I lower my spare get the jack out and go to town changing my tire. Then the fucking jack had lost all of its oil and would not go up. A phone call later my buddy came with a good jack and the tire was changed within a few minutes. Then it was practically impossible to keep the thing straight. And it feels like something else got bent. I guess that's why I drive an old piece of shit..... cheap parts!:huh:
Anyway, picture time!

I think that the -20* temps made things mighty brittle.
