        Yeah man, S50 with low = deathwish, haha.
        Race skids is quite the product.

        It has survived multiple beatings on my end.
        I've had plenty of "omFg, that MUST of broke through the skid" moments and to my surprise everything was fine.

            Raceskids is great, as you can see here its saved my m20 multiple times and actually has a piece of concrete in the lower right corner (dont worry they come painted black, i just decided to paint it pink) even survived a man hole cover.

                    I've heard numerous people say that their car drove fine with a cracked oil pan, and all the oil gushed out when they shut it off.

                      Don't do this. ^

                      If your vehicle has a cracked oil pan, shut your engine off immediately. Reason? Because a cracked pan WILL leak, and if the level drops below your pickup while driving you can kiss your engine good bye.

                        I'd never do that lol. I was just relaying what i've read. It's obviously a terrible idea to drive with a cracked pan.
