rough weekend

I just got back from a trip up to montreal for the long weekend for a wedding and everything was going great, that it until i got about half way home and decided to look at my tires.... which were both unbelievably wore on the inside... when i had brought it in for the camber kit the assholes never re aligned it which now cost me over $500 in new tires, to make matters worst i was drivin to woodstock to tak my g/f home and my car starts shaken real bad, what now i think.. oh nothing of course just my drive shafts... this will all i thnk but put the cl away a bit early for the winter and i can start off fresh in the spring with new rubber new c/f hood new paint, new drive shafts (maybe h22 swap) and a god damn alignment

so u've been driving without it aligned? I think you would know if ur car is aligned or not, but that doesn't matter now. Hope everything works out.

That's a lot of driving you did over the weekend. That sucks about what happened to the tires. Did you get it aligned in Milton?

Thats a bad weekend? Ha.
After working 6 days I decide to spend the rest of my weekend at my Gf's. Driving there was nice untill I came off Interstate 84. I fell into a huge hall on the side of the road with bent and cracked both on my new rims. The next day some fucking ass backs into my car and makes a nice dent on my hood. We are looing at $400 for 2 rims and you do the math for the hood. Very costly.

Wow, I feel so sad... Were's my pistola... What is a hall? did you pull over into a low sholder or run over a huge pothole? I bent the inside of a rim once that way... not too expensive to fix. As for the assmonkey who backed into your whip... may he go down on his girl and find a creamy filling... provided by a stranger's loin. LOL Nasty. Oh, almost forgot the origin... Hate to hear the shop fucked you on the camber/alignment... That was most certainly the camber, and as for the half shafts... man, how did you break a CV joint... was it not clicking from the improper camber? glad you are gonna let it rest... shoot some pics with the c/f hood.
