be lucky to be alive. Those pirelli's aren't built to hit chuck holes that fast. Your lucky that the tire didn't explode and flip your car over.

Think next time before going through a school parking lot that fast.

You didn't notice you had to shift gears a few times on the way??

There is no way to lose track of how fast you are going by 60mph in a standard.

The good news about this story is that we should all feel safer as long as this kid sticks to driving solely in parking lots
