Last friday I was in the TII, going 60 down this street, right? So I see my turn, begin braking and hit a puddle of oil that leaked out of other schmucks car. back end breaks loose, I try to save it twice before spinning around backwards. I wind up in someone's back yard....missing my front driver's side wheel. I missed their Blazer by two feet and two trees by ten feet. I also missed their living room by about 15 feet.



So the wheels on the driver side are both FUBAR, as is the caliper, spindle, Lower control arm, tie rod, And brake rotor. I haven't had the chance to lift the back, but i'm afraid its going to need just as much help.



This sucks SOOOOOO bad. The officer gave me a ticket for "Failure to control speed" Because he didn't see it, and wanted to ticket me for something.



Anyways, I'll try to post pics.



any suggestions?
