kyle whatch the guy on the inside of me he boots me into the wall,

03sierraslt, in racing you can never slack in safety equipment, ive seen people hit that wall and com o ut a lot worse than i did...i was running 3rd and had a flat tire and had to go to the back and at that point i had prolly burned around 10 gallons of fuel and its 22 gallon fuel cell and when i open the cap when i got home the fuel was right at the top the cell was crushed that bad...i wish i had pics of it..if it would have crushed any more it would have found some way to bust open possibly
