Thumbs down Driver MOD not working...

Some of you might have already seen, but yes my driver MOD failed on me 2 weeks ago in the rain while I was getting off an exit in Augusta, GA. I was doing about 30mph and it felt like I was on a sheet of ice. The a$$ end came around too far on me and I ended up taking out a pole and a sign. Here are the results...








So after waiting 1 week my GF's cousin came with a flat bed from Myrtle Beach, SC to Fort Gordon, GA where I am doing I.T. school for the Army. We loaded up the S and headed back to SC.

TOP ALWAYS DOWN!!! lol






The car was in the shop for 2 weeks as she was fixed and made new again...









I just picked her up yesterday and now am in "happy" status again...(yes I am looking for NEW tires righttttt now!!)

Perhaps the road thought your windshield banner was instructions?

Glad you're back on the road!

Yeah, "Move Over --->" because I might crash into you.

He doesnt seem to be too worried about it here.
That car is right on his ass and he isnt budging to let it by.


The banner may be broken too

Congrats on reviving a broken spirited S2000.
If I ever see you in my rear view, I'll definitely move over.

glad you got it fixed! Were your rear tires bald? What kind of tires were they and how much tread do you think you had left?
