Unhappy Blew my tire...

****, my tire went flat last night driving on the Autobahn and all I felt were weird vibrations. As it was the rear tire I didn't feel any weird vibrations under braking and thought it was the clutch. But as the vibrations got stronger I decided to have a look and pulled over on one of those resting areas..... but I continued to drive RIGHT through as I saw about 15-20 guys chilling outside the toilet at 23:30 and about 10 more walking around in the dark... I HAD DRIVEN INTO SOME GAY MEETINGPLACE!!! Damn.... I continued limping on until I thought that it can't be right and pulled over to check the clutch and that's when I saw the tire. As I have removed my spare tire because of the weight I thought "Ah, this is a good time to use my great tire fixing spray that will seal the hole and inflate the tire". After about 2 mins of kneeling next to the car with 40 ton lorries driving 50 cm next to me the can was empty and absolutely nothing had happened... ****... Well, it is a rally car I thought and with images of Tommi driving 150km/h with no rear wheel I just drove back home at about 20mph and the rim looks completely fine. All I can say that the car is very driveably with a flat rear tire.

At least none of the guys tried poking ya as you were bent over the tire.

Glad you got home safely.

Tires Grrrr

I managed to blow two tires in one month within 50m of each other on the road to work. $135 a pop. Not Happy! I no longer use that road anymore. The guy at the tire shop knows me by name
