Re: Modded car owners: Will you be compensated for mods?

Holy crap, all of that is from hitting a tire?? Wow. Worst case scenario is that you get compensated for the list price of the car and buy that one back for 10% of what you got. Then you use that money to fix it back up, and likely pocket some or buy more mods!

Thats what I said as the twirling fireball that was the trucks tire fly towards me and then SMASH!!!

I know from working on them that tow truck tires are easily 75lbs, take that and hurl it at your car WITHOUT any rubber on it (as far as I can tell, the tire had discinigrated by the time it hit me) at 120 closing velocity and you have one hell of an impact.

What SUCKS is this was a PERFECT dsm with NO RUST!!!
