OK so we all know that Brad will cause you to spend more money than you're actually wanting and/or needing to for parts for sale, and has been known to get the most unheard of deals on hot-commodity parts and deals, because he's a Jew.
As you all prolly know from his post- I was fucted 2 hrs from home. This pot-hole I hit in Kentuky not only bent my rim and blew out my sidewall, but also turned on the wipers and my left turn signal, and turned my stereo off!
She was runnin soooo good too! I sat for 6 hrs. of a 5.5hr trip at a BP station on an exit that I had never even acknowledged before. I did everything I could before calling my homeboy. I banged the rim out with a borrowed hammer, cause the bead wouldn't hold 10 psi. So that holds air and I realize the sidewall has a 3/4" rip in it where it meets the tread. It didn't look that big, so I tried fix-a-flat, but that blew out(-$5.75.) I called a taxi to run to Wal-mart for a plug kit (the gas station didn't have one)and that ran me $30 with tip plus $10 for the kit. I tripled the plugs and it held 32psi, but I got merged onto the freeway and heard pfeeeew! Blew out the triple plug! So I got to the next exit and went to Home depot for rubber cement cause the plug kit were just the tacky plugs and reamer/plugger- no cement. I put in the last two plugs w/ rubber cement and it wouldn't hold 10psi. I sat in a funk thinkin WTF?
I knew it was alot to ask. I texted niggatron that I would give him $50 to hook me up (he had to take his dad's truck, so I also put $30 in the tank), and I half expected to hafta just rent a motel room, and get a pair of skins in the morning, but his ass didn't hesitate in saying OK!
I owe you big time, Brad! Thanks!
fix-a-flat-$5.75
taxi-$30
plug kit-$10
bribe-$50
fuel-$30
Seein a teamember pull up to save your ass- priceless.
On the way home I realized that with my finances on-hand and the amount of money spent and taking today off to get tires and return Brad's stuff. I prolly woulda been better off to just get a motel room and hit a tire store today.Oh well! + one meeellion for zx2guy19!
