    Some have thought that we should let this thread die, but the aforementioned squirrel in the said accident has recently started his own fan club and requests your support. You can email him at deeznuts@gmail.com for continuing inspiration and candid commentary on today's issues.

    I posted this pic a while back on another thread, but for comparison this was also a 30ish mph collision. I hit a concrete wall.

    Yeah, that's what I was thinking too. Just a cheap tin can would've done as well. Need a bullbar on that thing to deflect some real damage

    Getting back to the main bone of contention with the OP on this one, how fast was the wall going?
