Huh. Your car looks lower than that from the outside.

When I had my car sitting like this (http://bochmannphoto.net/Bilder/ifilth/filth3.jpg), before the cops busted my balls, I had exactly 5.5cm / 2.15 inch space at the same spot your phone is lying in the quoted picture.

I would have thought you'd have much less space there, more like 1.5 inch. Then again, it looks a bit ground down there, so maybe you should have less space but don't because it's ground down? :confused:

My friend and I left town to head down to ATL. I live roughly 15 minutes from the interstate exit. We decided we'd see how many times my car scraped on shit before we got to the interstate.
We got to 34 before getting bored. :)

haha priceless.

Should have seen Craig behind me in the roadster at EuroWerks. I pulled in the main section angled and cleared fine then I looked in the mirror and he was just rejected instantly......stuck.

I agree. Guys I live in a southern mountainous shit hole town that seems like the civil engineers were 4th graders. The roads are horendous, the worst I've ever seen.....and I still try to do it. Luckily I've lived here several years and know the better roads, but it's still terrible :(

Sucks to roll hard. I hit this sweet piece of metal on the freeway at 6:50 this morning while on my way to work. It was perfectly flat but it got stuck and bent and I drug it for about 1 mile to downtown Orlando. Was a pain in the ass to get out but I eventually got it. Luckily it only broke my bumper tab and scratch my lip
