On the way to work this morning, a Honduh takes a right turn on full throttle, yes, he discovered torque steering. In a cloud of smoke, he did a 180. I hope he had vinyl seat covers  ------------------

Thought I was going to nail the rear end of a little bmw roadster coupe on the way home from work today. Idiot was doing 80+ and weaving in and out of traffic like he was racing in the Daytona 500. Good thing I was paying attention. I had to walk around the explorer when I got home to see if there was a target painted on it.  Dave & Terri ------------------

It must be fixed from the tree incident! I swear the best chance of getting hit has to be just after getting a vehicle out of the body shop!!! I am almost certain that the Body shops paint "Ghost Targets" (much like a ghost flame) into the paint! Almost like subliminal messages yelling out to other motorists...."Hit me"...."Hit me" .... Good luck Dave .... Sounds like you may need it! ------------------

I had a Camaro that was hit on the right side. The body shop cleaned up the whole side like new. A couple weeks later, my son was parking it in the garage and scraped the back half of the right side.  ------------------

The night before last the ROTO ROOTER truck tried to drive me off the road...Sucks to be that driver though... We live just down the street from the company and have a very good relationship with the owner. He was not amused...

My mom took out the front left fender in her 71 Pinto and 3 days from getting it back I thought I would try. And I don't want to hear about the ghost target for I am hoping to get mine back from the body/paint in two weeks and am having phantom flames and now fear they will add a target. ------------------
