Bang oh shi

No idea, i was driving home from my daughters house.Nice left hander 80 kph than needed a change of underdaks



UNDERSTEER is when you hit the wall with the front of the car. OVERSTEER is when you hit the wall with the rear. HORSEPOWER is how fast you hit the wall. TORQUE is how far you take the wall with you.

    Toughened Screens - Don't you love em...
     
    Had a stone shatter the toughened screen in the RS driving to work about 5 years ago and luckily I was wearing sunnys as there were small glass fragments inside of my shirt when I got out to clean out the undies... Without the glasses on I would have had small glass fragments in my eyes.. As it was it was an hour or so before I worked out why I was all itchy on the chest (small glass fragments irritate the skin apparently..)
     
    Sounds great doesn't it - BIG bang then virtually no vision straight after...
     
    I go for a new laminated screen every time now.  Even if you find a toughened one really cheap, don't go there...
     
    Laminated like all new cars have will crack in the vicinity of the strike, but will not craze.  My Council Mondeo got a small rock through the screen only 3 days ago and all it has done is a large broken circle nd then 2 large cracks radiating up the screen... Neither myself or the other driver of the car that day noticed even when it happened.  (With a toughened screen it sounds like someone just unloaded a shotty in the car and painted the windscreen all at once...

    Just my 2.2c worth including GST....
