Ouch..sorry to hear that. With that kind of impact you may want to get the alignment checked also.

We made it home safely too. No potholes or accidents, just RAIN east of Nashville. That was a great gathering! I never have seen so many Camaro SS's together! Suddenly we dont feel so special anymore. That auction last night was definately an event not to be missed! Posts: 200 | From: Baxter, TN. 38544 | Registered: Feb 2000

J.R. forgot to tell the funniest story about the trip home which would have been the 3 Mustangs that wanted to play with us for about 30+ miles right as we left Bowling Green. Where was our Camaro convoy when we needed it? he he he Needless to say these Mustangs didn't want to play nice They had more fun blocking us behind them and swerving in and out of traffic all driving crazy and quite dangerously. Now we did have to teach them a lesson that you don't mess with a Camaro by breaking out a big old can of WHOOP ASS!!! he he he Anyway I should have some pictures dowloaded later today...by the way the easiest way to make a Mustang owner mad...TAKE HIS PICTURE!!!

Sorry about the rim man, I know that sucks pretty bad.
But like everyone else has said, you made it safely other than that and at least you have a wealth of support here! Maybe someone can help you get a replacement at a decent price...despite the fact it's an 35th LE.
Good luck!

Very sorry to hear about your rim. It always sucks when something like that happens after (or during) an event like this. I never did get a chance to say hello at this show...maybe next year.

Nice to finally meet you J.R. I mentioned that on the way home, didn't see a pot hole in Kentucky at all! Then we hit the Michigan roads! Yikess!

That is your Welcome to Michigan,the only state that allows 90,000 lb trucks on the roads! Posts: 5682 | From: Dearborn,Mi. | Registered: Feb 2002

I said to Brian that they don't need a Michigan state line sign, 'cause you know you're entering Michigan just by the condition of the roads. Posts: 2359 | From: Waterloo, Ontario, Canada | Registered: Jul 2001
