ARE YOU ******* KIDDING ME. MY ******* company's shipping dept is shut down right now so as a good employee I am i run to UPS to ship stuff overnight and what do you know I back into a big curb.

Fortunately it doesn't look like a lot of damage but of course its raining out and I can't see. Tail pipe looks unscathed. My mudflap is ripped off and hanging from the bottom bracket.
WHAT THE ****.
 
Wonder what the true max HP is on it though because 550hp & 2500 ft lb @ 1200rpms is a ton. (that is the figures at 1200rpms, actually comes out to 571hp if its truly 2500ft lbs or 2406 ft lbs if its truly 550hp.)

But what i mean is if its capable of going over 1200rpms I wonder what the max HP would be.

HP = (torque * RPM) / 5252
 
**** man! Rain is the worst time to curb rims, visibility sucks :/ I curbed my RX-8 rear rim a good 12" all around in the rain and light hail
 
Or when you have some A-Hole swerve into your lane making you nail the curb with your JDM wheel. Grrrrr.
 
HP = (torque * RPM) / 5252

Yeah thats what I used to figure out if it was stating the tq and hp were from 1200rpms.

Can't use it to figure out peak HP because you would need the torque measured at that RPM. Can't use the 2500..
 
ya i think i made out relatively good considering I just need to fix my flap flapping in the air now. I can't really get underneath but tailpipe and bumper look unscratched so worse case maybe some clips that popped off. Just having a bad few days with the car. I need to park it.
Good news is RA will replace hardware with proof of purchase. The mudflAps have plastic washers designed to fail the way they did which is completely pop off. Reason well read my earlier post apperently I'm not the first one. I told them I have to fix it for OCC meet cuz they are sponsors and they said if they can't ship hardware out in time they will bring some to the meet.

New cat alone for Amanda's jeep cost $900! Dayum. Good news is she reports that it's previous behavior was equivalent to it trying to push exhaust through a straw. New exhaust is apparently a little louder too. Maybe now she'll be able to cruise in 4th gear below 40 mph.

How old is the jeep? Cats are covered under a longer warrenty, I think its like 8 years..
 
Saw my first Camaro at a dealer. It's a 1LT RS package automatic. Base price is $23,880 and with all the options (including $995 for the 6-speed automatic), it rounds up to a nice $28,030. It's a bright true red, not sure what the actual name of the color is...

Chevy's finally putting them out there!!
 
Lol yup. When was it first there? I take a different way home now so I don't go by there much unless I have to go to Wally world.
