Ouch! I was expecting him to lose control and wreck. Made me jump out of my chair when it happened.

He actually was driving the hell out of that thing.

Unless something BROKE even the stock mechanism should have held the hood down. WTF happened?

He was kicking ass, too. What a way to lose the race. LOL @ the dome lamp popping out.

The hood completely came off. I'm guessing it wasn't on the stock hinges.
