Message	I was going around a ramp from one of my highways to another, and a mitsibishi eclipse was in front of me about 2 car lengths ahead. He ran over something and here i see something flying right towards me. 5 tenths of a second later there is glass all over me, and there is a medal rod through my passenger side seat. Turns out there was a rod about three times the size of a golf club, and it was flug up when the guy ran over it. It hit my hood and dented and scraped it all the way up, flew through the top of my windshield and bent the panel right about it, went through my passenger side leather seat, and into the carpeted part behind it. Oh yeah, it also hit my door on the inside and gashed a whole in it, and knocked my rear view mirror off. My insurance is gonna cover all of it, but it's funny because i was on my way to have my exhaust installed. I'm just thankful that there was no one in my passenger seat because they wouldn't still be here anymore. Am i able to get my seat completely replaced, or are they just gonna reapolster it? It went straight through it, so it's not just a tear in the leather. I'm also wondering what kinda hood is that on the White Twin Turbo Z that was featured in Turbo magazines issue a couple of months back? Thanks guys, and just be careful about how close you ride to people. I wasn't even close but still got nailed. Nate So, which Formula 1 Car are you most like?
