Default What a friday nite... w/pic

the pic is my car tonite(on a tow truck). yeah i hoped that day wouldnt come, i mean my dad is my mechanic . however with him hours away from my college it got towed. my car started to make this AWEFUL squeaking, i would compare it to nails down a chalkboard. it happened any time the car was in motion. so i pulled over and called a tow truck. hours later i get home and kevin(fsaeracer03)comes to the rescue and decides that it is probably the brakes. he take it to the shop and removes one wheel. turns out only a rock stuck between rotor and brake dust shield(or something like that). so now car is home safely(was driven here). hopefully i dont hafta see her on that tow truck any time soon....it was devastating. THANX KEVIN!!!

A sad sight indeed. I'm glad it was just a rock.

I was going to indicate that SOW has it's own Rock that seems to worm its way into all of our problems, but I opted not to. But now that you brought it up - it's on!

You (and dad) are absolutely correct. Rock has a way of messing things up, so to speak...
