Crazy

Not from my M3 but.......... I had a blow out on the autobahn today at 120mph in my Challenger. The TPMS Aluminum ring broke off the valve stem. Good thing I have some driving skills. I controlled it, no accidents, damage to the car,.... not even a scratch on the rim......... just a busted ass tire. Someone was feeling sorry for me today, as this could have ended tragically.... for me at least.

Yeah... a year ago maybe. There are more challengers on Base here than there are Mustangs now. That is why I bought my M3........ only 2 others on Base

Which base you speak of? I see multiple Ms in all the bases I've been to.

I think this is your Challenger getting back at you for calling it a "Chally"

The only pic I could take......... doesn't look bad, but I sure did not like seeing her on the back of a wrecker/ transporter.
