ehh... ****in curb
well...
turning...
avoid deer...
understeer (i know... wtf right)
then over steer... (if it wasnt for the under steer then this wouldnt have been a problem)
hit curb...
no serious damage... my pal was surprised i missed the huge fawkin deer runnin full speed out of the woods then changing coarse towards us...
yes yes... it ran out then turn and was running straight at us as i was makin a left hand turn... ****in thing woulda totaled me... good thing i'm a decent driver...
well hit the curb... (fishtailed a bit and slammed it really)
put a nice size scrape on my eagle alloys...
now the brake is rubbin...
I think the brake just needs a quick adjust...
Anyone think something else?
havent had a chance to look at it...

1. Learn to drive
2. Check the brakes...(your probably right)
3. If its not the brake then you bent something which means oh crap

it came so fast... i had less than 1/2 a sec to react...
i just cant figure why and/or how i understeered?
i guess from slamin the brake while turnin...
but then i gassed a bit much to recover...
oh... well... gimme some credit... if it was the average driver the result woulda been a totaled car

2 months later a deer took my dads car in the side and cruched the door.Could have been worse.......but might wanna get your car looked at if its not the brake

i just dont understang why the brake would start rubbin...
the other possiblle damage would be a bent rear... but it would take a dodge ram to bent that ****in possi... and that still would explain the brake rubbin...
no doubt in my mind the rim is bent... it doesnt look bent but its scraped like a ****...

**** ***
its either the wheel or the axel thats bent...
i swear this sucks *******...
i doubt the wheel is bent cause its alloy and they usually crack or break... and a bent wheel wouldnt explain the brake issue...
my axel must be ****ed...
anyone know how much that might be... i think i'll end up gettin one from the junk yard anyhow but...

Now what did I say......... 
...anyways I dont know finding a junk yard rearend for you car wont be hard considering your going to have to rebuild whatever you get. Theres a few other ford car rearends that you can use as well.

Scenario:
1. Nighttime, slightly foggy. Two-lane highway with 55mph speed limit (damn you, Illinois)
2. Two jackals doing 30mph right next to each other.
3. No amount of honking or light flashing motivates them to go any faster
4. I get bright idea to make a quick shoulder pass around them.
5. Notice Im accelerating in 2nd gear toward a large chunk of salt
6. It wasnt so much a large chunk of salt, as much as it was a large chunk of rock
7. BOOM
I pulled over at the next possible exit to check for damage. And somehow there was absolutely none. I still have an oil pan, a trans pan, and nothing is dented or has a hole in it. So I just put on a custom rear bumper cover that says "MUSTANK"
The moral of the story is: be patient with slow drivers. If you hit a rock on the shoulder of an expressway, you'll immediatley find out that next time, the rock should be made of kryptonite. Anyways: commence flaming, jests, etc. I deserve it. LOL :stupid:
