    Here are a few Pics. I did not have my normal lens with me so forgive the shaddy camera work. I also threw a quick edit on them if anyone wants the original just PM me. Vids will be up soon.

    I went to puerco after the meet with a few other friends and I think it happened there. We noticed it while messing around near snoopy. Not exactly sure where it popped. I know for sure it did not happen at Cedro because I aired down at the puerco and checked everything out before starting. :(

    The quality goes up to 1080. The rest should be uploaded this evening or tomorrow AM. If I got someones user name wrong let me know and I will change it.

    Here are the pics guys. So me and the aother guy were heading to a call and he was behind me at about 50-60ish mph but was in the right lane and I was in the left lane. Well we got to where we were going and I started to slow down and turn right across the right lane. I thought that he saw what I was doing and slowed down. Well obviously he hit me and shoved me up onto a curb,over a sign, and over a parking curb. Well the sign cut all mechanical power to the car (so I couldn't steer) and the curbs are what flattened my tires. Oh ya and I missed the HUGE :eek: wood telephone pole by about 8 inches on my drivers side!!!! His air bag deployed, mine didn't, but we are both okay and that is all that matters.

    Thanks for your comments guys. Kai....ya he wasn't exactly following policy being in the right lane but ya he was doing the same speed as I was, about 50-60ish. And yes the lord was defiantly watching over both of us.

    I talked to the manufacture of mine, spc, and they said this is only the second time they have seen a break and it broke in the exact same spot on the other one too. They will be sending a complete new setup no charge hope to be back in the truck this week.
