Default Juan - Unfunctiontuned!

Yes, yes, you all predicted right. Everyone has been getting their share of being unfunction tuned somehow---but it seems Juan was missing all the bad luck. UNTIL LAST FRIDAY!
On the way home from the shop Juan and I decided to stop by Montgomery Mall and grab dinner, (bad idea-maybe we should’ve starved that night), but I park in the eatery parking lot up close, Juan decides to go toward the back of the parking lot and slightly try to drift his beater. As we all know it was raining all day and it was the coldest day of the week, somewhere in the 30’s. So he begins the turn, when his car only turns half way then just hits a puddle of water, which had now became basically ice, and just went sideways uncontrollably, hitting the wall. I ran over to see if he was ok and figure out what happened. I didn’t believe him when he was telling me how slippery it was until I decided to try to skate on it and I went sliding 10ft. (juan knows how too drifto, we've seen that at the Fredrick Nissan meet, but didn't expect conditions to be that poor in the garage) NE ways, yes Juan has finally been unfunction tuned….thank God it wasn’t the z right! pics…

If you had an oil cooler, this wouldn't have happened!

Welcome to the unFunction:TUNED club once again Juan! We have missed you! I'm sure that's not a problem for you to bang out, while u're at it, make it a RWD conversion, throw in a SR20, etc.

A curb. Luckily I'm not lowered because I would have messed my bumper up real good.
