My latest adventure

Jan 12, 2007 23:28

Here's a question:

What would possess me to go off-roading with Kent and the guys he works with?  In his 87 Grand Marquee... which is already falling apart from the last time he went off-roading, to the point where he can't open the driver side door and the suspension makes a loud noise when you hit a bump?  In a field behind a trailer park in Rawsonville, MI (yeah I don't know where the hell it is either)?

The answer: I have no freakin clue, man.

After taking a jump 3 times, I'm sure he got it airborne at least once... and if nothing else, my ass was definitely off the seat (because there were no seatbelts... of course!).

It was pretty freakin awesome.

The final damage from the night:
- one of the side moldings fell off... we don't know when
- the battery (which isn't secured) sparked after the last 2 jumps
- the gas line was cut and started leaking fuel like mad

It was after that last part that he decided to bring me back to Ann Arbor in one of the other guys' cars.  But we stopped at Murray's to get a temporary fix for the gas line... and I'm almost positive that once he puts it on he'll take the jump again.  Ah well.

I had fun.   =D
