[TobyB]

so you know if I have wiped out a soccer family on the road

There's a lotta those. Set your sights higher! Commute in front of school busses!!!

I'd put my $10 on you making it with no further damage.
I would not want to be your lawyer if I was wrong...

Ok, but if he makes it with no further damage, you would be donating the $10 to him since he succeeds!

Im going to say those straps last one week, so I will give him until the end of the day on the 23rd. He makes it past then, I will gift him my $10.

Anyone else want to get in on it?

We are getting in to colder weather, so there is a chance of some ice and our usual solutions of throwing crud on the road for traction/deicing/job security.. IF it hits freezing, I'll go 4 days on the straps.

The solution is obvious: jbweld

Large zip ties

You know what ells is amazingly strong? That plastic wrap they use on shipping pallets. Maybe Ill try that next. Or a few packs of chewing gum.

Should you? No but it doesn't mean you cant. Anyone who has worked at a shop will tell you they have seen cars come in with far worse and still manage to be on the road no "major" issues. Ball joints are probably the #1 thing people just let go until they are being held in by hope and good faith.

Don't discount the power of Zipties! They held together the rear corner of my PRO3 car through a 7 hour enduro.

..actually, they are still holding that rear quarter panel together. I should probably fix that before Laguna..

Dude, the power is real..
Yeah u should totally do that but it will probably be ok still anyway.

I can't wait to see the backup that this causes. Like I-5 doesn't have enough issues already.

I think it'll be fine with those straps. Its not like he'll be drag launching or doing clutch kicks - the 5 bolts that normally support the diff can take a lot of abuse, if he's easy on it, he should be fine.

[deutschman]

I'm still alive guys.
I have three more days of driving left before I can fix the subframe showing up from SF on Tuesday. Work Monday-Wednesday then I'll drive the GF's truck thanksgiving, and work on the BMW Friday-Sunday. Won't be driving the car at all this weekend.

Please try not to. Be safe.
