I am not a happy camper today... As soon as I got home, my sister helped me install the parts very quickly, and I was excited to test my new suspension setup at high speed. This car has given me little trouble since I bought it, but I guess it's out of the honeymoon phase now... Something went wrong with the transmission, causing the rear wheels to lock up and sending me into the wall. The crash itself wasn't too bad, I lost my bumper and dented my front right quarter. I am more concerned about the fact that the CA18 revved to around, I'd say 2500rpm OVER the limiter during the failure.

When I can manage to get a tow back to the shop, I will roll it into the darkroom again (It's still set up) and take some pictures of the damage. I can rule out shifting error, as it happened about 4 seconds after I shifted into third, to accelerate onto the highway. I will see what I can do with this car, though, I am afraid I might not be able to fix what has been done.
