Looks like the driver thought he was in a tractor and tried to plough a field! Looks like it worked too! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Re: OUCH!!! New it would happen soon enough

Wonder how much the remaining cars have just gone up in value by this? Supply and demand curves for undamaged cars etc...

Re: OUCH!!! New it would happen soon enough

This picture was in the back of the most recent issue of Hot Rod. There where few details associated with it, only stating that the driver was gone when the photographer pulled up.
