Every time I hear someone say "just take 'em in the twisties", I cringe
for two reasons. First, because it's probably the "gayest" thing I've ever
heard a group of supposedly cool people adopt as a standard phrase.
Second, because I know that many of you think you automatically
inherited super-human driving powers by buying your "perfectly-balanced"
cars, but when it comes right down to it, more than likely can't drive well
enough to save your life if an unexpected situation arose. I'm constantly
reading about someone who has bent a rim or wrecked their car because
they spun it on wet pavement or zigged when they should have zagged,
usually on bald tires... and this is what you entrust your life to? Bald
tires
and your driving skills? Remind me never to ride with you.
Thats dead on. Good post.

Fd3BOOST,
Do you happen to have the specifics on any of the cars? Just curious.....in the first group of photos, the top middle black car, and the silver car directly below it both have some unusual, but very similar damage.

Well, it sort of looked like compression forces came from above. The first car looks to be a 99 spec bumper without the reinforcement, so that might make it hard to tell. Either way your right though, the driver's seat probably needed to be shampooed.
