However we can get a plate number... so be it. We don't have to know how it was obtained.

Geez, Krut...WTF?

How did I miss this? Hope Oliver is close to being finished.

Why are you having such rotten luck with R56s?

It could be worse! I think a Ferarri driver ran them off the road too!

I guess that's the first time the tow truck driver pulled out a 7,000 lb weiner - fortunately a few tugs got them out!

I bet he enjoyed tugging on the weiner, what with two female drivers cheering him along.

I applaud you dogged pursuit of all applicable puns.

Krut-date!

According to Rob at CrAshburn Collision, they're waiting on an igniter for my Xenon, a bulb, and a TPMS receiving module. It'll be sent out for a four-wheel alignment to ensure I don't have a Krutted suspension.

So fingers crossed.. Wednesday?

Once subs get involved, schedules go right out the window.
