In the spirit of keeping this thread alive....


Mine would be, coming home from work....car was overheating a bit, pulled in the driveway, shut the car off, got out, pulled the hood pins, then stopped and though "Don't touch anything idiot, wait for the car to cool down", set the hood pins around the post and went in the house.

20 minutes later, I forget what it was about, but I got a phone call and needed to go somewhere, got outside (hood was down), forgot all about pulling the pins out.

Got about 1/2 mile down the street, hit about 40mph going uphill and WHACK!!!!:wallbash

I only had the CF hood about 8 months at that point. Cracked it all to hell. I'm just thankful it didn't crack my windshield. But the hood is still on my car. Just doesn't look pretty. Haha
