So I woke up the morning of May 31st at 3:30 with everything packed and ready to go. I went and picked up my buddies that were going with then we hit the road. After about 70 miles, all of a sudden, BANG. My speedo dropped to zero and the car started coasting.
There I was stuck on the side of I-94 at 5:00 am with a blown rear end 70 miles away from home, and 230 miles away from the Michigan Meet. So I called Allstate for a Tow Truck, and waited on the ****ing phone for a half hour until someone finally picked up. And apparently I didn't give good enough directions as to where we were because the Tow truck driver had been looking for me for quite some time.
The TT Driver had to have been the biggest redneck on the face of the earth, no offense to people who take offense to that, but this guy was pretty degrading. After the hour drive back home, we dropped the car off at Casey's Automotive to learn what I already knew.
It's $1500 worth of damage and labor, and the shop is doing it for $900. Plus Im getting rid of the old gears and putting in 3.73's.
