    Fucking military D ring

    Absolutely destroyed Brooke's splitter in her Miata, dented the fucking subframe and got hooked around a cross member under the trans.

    Drug it for about however long it took us to stop and it was making some noise that's for sure

    Now we have to go to the hotel parking lot and take the splitter off because it is 120% fucked

    PS if you haul shit, secure your fucking load. This thing is like 25 lbs and would easily go through a fucking windshield

      Welcome to Automotion 2016!

      And yes, the thought of that going through the glass is extremely frightening.

        Got the splitter off in a parking lot

        813c1942a9549327e82e5bc57f8a68d9.jpg

        Took a chunk of abs that was strong enough to stand on

        1d357e79998b5ce7c638882584d1064b.jpg

        Dented the subframe and almost caught a PS line

        Also hit a fin on the pan

        63fd71b7737f1e366d25448bf99e22bf.jpg

        Then came to "rest" (got hooked on) the cross brace

        26d6f216611cb8e7bb0d87d33591700e.jpg

        All in all the splitter saved a bunch of stuff and Brooke's happy it didn't completely destroy anything

        When we hit it I was on the phone with my banks member services and yelled "oh fuck pull over!!" She said "WHAT?!" I hung up.

          Not near as bad as I expected.  Probably was terrifying though.

            That couldve been a bad scene but luckily nobody was hurt.

              It was probably a good thing it got caught up on that cross brace, it would've done some serious damage to anyone behind us

              And yeah, not terrible, but that splitter is strong enough to stand on when it's mounted to the car lol. It's quite thick, definitely glad it caught that and not the radiator

                Holy crap that thing could've caused some serious damage, must've been quite the hit. Glad it was to the car and not someone's face...

                    FYI I liked it so I would get notifications (for the owner if I knew him) not because I'm sick in the head....

                    Sad day. It was very clean as well 😕

                            That looks like a very clean e30=( Absolutely no reason someone rear ends that hard unless they were being careless

                              Rurik was at the fall meet last year with that car. Unfortunate but as Earl pointed out on Facebook no rear bumper and blacked out tails didn't help either.

                                Great start to The Gathering Of The Juggalos.

                                I enjoyed meeting Rurik at Veloce last fall. Real bummed to see this happen.

                                  Dudes. Not having a car down here is greaT. I'm hammered. Ask me anything about the cars I've seen.

                                    What automotive sub-culture is most represented and how many hundred thousand volkswagens/audis are there?

                                      I was joking about the hammered part, just mocking 98% of the people down here.

                                      There are tons and tons of trucks

                                          Saw a Tesla model S nail it on the freeway to pass someone, shot forward like I was standing still but it was totally silent, it was awesome
