    you guys will get a smile out of this......

    my 97 m3/4/5 slick top has had 3 track days w/me...bought her in oct 21


    rushed home from work 2 weeks ago to beat sundown...


    washed her.....put on track rubber.,added new number plates,..topped up oil....


    was racing sundown. and dealing w/ a new squeeze that was blowing up my texts....grrrr


    f it I say.....took the car out to a local pub for a mean burger..... and at 25 mph......



    BANGGGGGGGG!...hood flies open


    cracked the windscreen....hood is a pretzel...


    sooooo stupid...never latched it shut.
