Default The passing of one of our bretheren...(Porsche related)
I had to turn around when I saw this:

A closer shot; What you can't see is that the entire shock assembly is still atached to the hub, brakes and all!!

The culprit turn. He was coming towards us and hit the guardrail, Obviously no quattro!

Default I still can't see how his wheel is facing that if he hit the guardrail...
wouldn't it make more sense if the strut part was on the street side of the rail?
