Wow! So lesson learned I guess. Glad to hear that you aren't hurt though.

Nice video editing skillz! I thought rolling over the camera was a neat perspective! Sorry to hear about the mishap. I'm familiar with the laws of physics and I still enjoy getting her sideways in the rain... I figure it is easier on my tires (since I can do the same on dry pavement). Maybe he was just playing around and got out of hand. It happens...

i think i even held the throttle and when it started to straighten out i got on the throttle a little more, i didn't know that the track pack came with summer tires only... well its good to know now lol . I got used to them doing a few drifts and some 180s in the dry, but wet is a completely different story.

there is more damage than meets the eye. The wheel is actually NOT bent, believe it or not, these wheels chip and crack and don't bend, which i think is a bad idea because it bends other stuff behind the wheel.

I'm trying to get a list of all of the things damages and then take it to a shop to get a full estimate on things.

Here is the good thing. I wanted to get the GT500 2013 mufflers, 2013 defuser, upgrade springs, paint calipers, paint wheels and few other details.... well i guess here is my chance haha, only i was going to do it gradually but now looks like ill have to do it at all once.

just uploaded video without the music, seems like the scraping is the rotor against caliper, shaft is bent. maybe even lower control arm and axle shifted over. soon it will be time for upgraded parts

Ouch. That sucks. But any excuse to upgrade is a good one, right?

Yea i can definitely hear scraping and rubbing. Id get to a trusted shop and get everything checked out. Maybe one of your very mechanically inclined friends to check things out with you under the car and behind each wheel. Thats jjst what i would do. But this is definitely a good time for those upgrades you were planning! Theres a silver lining in eerything!
