PsychoBeano Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 It happened after a rehearsal for a play. Me and my best friend were bumping the tunes and I was like F it! Lets ghost ride this biatch! Only thing I forgot was to put it in Neutral, I stepped out and the car kept going faster. It was kind of like when butthead throws beavis out of the car and tells him to just run really fast. Both feet hit the ground and it was like instant backflips followed by me getting up and trying to run to catch up to the car. Total comedy. My friend was still listening to music in the car and when he turned to check on me he noticed i was planted on the floor 2 car lengths behind. He was smart enough to pull the e brake before anything stupid happened, lol. Pretty embarrassing, especially when all of the girls in the play were coming out to walk home.This was all followed by a successful attempt about 5 minutes later. I had to redeem myself :arob: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khax Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 ghost riding is so stupid but so fun i haven't had any mishaps yet although i did get a little too close to a brick wall one time. this kid i know who drives a newer s40 put a nice big dent in his hood though trying to stand on it Bought an automatic car +1,000,000if there had been a t5m and my car sitting next to each other at the lot for the same price, actually the manual could have been cheaper, i still would have chosen the auto. i really didn't want a manual but now i'm pissed i didn't.

Evil E Posted August 20, 2008 Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 Hmm...Let's see. Installed transmission in car before realizing the torque converter was on the workbench; installed oil filter on car while old gaket was still stuck to the block, and could'nt figure out why the oil was leaking; and, probably putting a wheel on, tighening the lugs by hand, and forgetting to tighten them before driving.

Serge Posted August 20, 2008 Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 When changing my timing belt 1.5 months ago, I put my hood up completely up, with about 2 inches of clearance between the ceiling and the hood. Then I proceeded to jack up the car to remove the passenger-side wheel. Put a 1 ft long crease in my hood virtually destroying it. $50 for a used hood from a junk yard (damn near perfect condition), and $500ish to get it repainted (with blending of the fenders). Car is in the shop right now, getting it back tomorrow.Luckily the t-belt job went fine.probably putting a wheel on, tighening the lugs by hand, and forgetting to tighten them before driving.Been there, done that. Scary thing to do.. you hear it wobbling all of a sudden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyCarIsRed Posted August 20, 2008 Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 I was patching the exhaust on my 79' 528i (E12). managed to fix the pipes, but as i was pulling it off the ramps the right one shifted and i gashed a 3" hole in the gas tank.
