Easy, do 130mph down the back straight of Sebring
Here I am coming in the Pits with about 70% of the trim gone  Oh Wait, you don't want it bent. Sorry I can't help you. The Corner Workers brought me back some of the most mangled up Aluminum I have ever seen. I will never use the trim again. I intend to use the rubber trim that is somewhat like the 911's T.C. |

QUOTE(carr914 @ Aug 30 2010, 04:29 PM)  Easy, do 130mph down the back straight of Sebring Mine came off in similar fashion. I only had to do 70 on the freeway. Worked just as well as your idea but not nearly as fun to tell the story. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |
