it happened a couple of years ago
my m8 said it was drivers side ball joint that snapped i missed three trees then hit the fourth no bark on it to this day and ppl still findin bits of it in bushes lol
paramedics were shocked cus my blood pressure and heart rate were perfectly normal as if id just got out of bed my mate was down the road as he heard what happened so he took me to the hospital the nxt morning

but quite shocked as a lot of the car survived and have only just started to rebuild the engine and its been running since that crash in my xr shell
