    Damn Roads of NYC (The pot hole thread)

    So I haven't been able to find one of these and I thought it be cool to start up. So yesterday was the first day I'm back from Arizona after being there for a week and I was driving at night not really looking at the road but more at the asshole in front of me that just cut me off. As he cut in front of me my beloved Midnight fell into the hugest fucking pothole that wasn't there the week before. Thank god for my serve skid plate or I'd be in the process of replacing my oil pan this week. Lets just say that pothole left it's make on the U-bar.

    Pot holes to avoid in Astoria, Queens:
    • 21st Street and Astoria Blvd. right in front of Palace Fried Chicken in the right lane.
    • Between Broadway & 31st Ave on 31 street. That strip is just fucked up.

    Also take your time of the speed bump on 36st Street between Broadway and 34th Ave.

            From experience of going throw two of them oil pans last year of jyst owning my first e30 for three months. I say do it, plus you spend less buying one than replacing ur oil pan, oil pickup and steering rack.
