Default because its a total blast

yeah it sucks that I ruined my bumper and will have to spend cash on that (rather than other mods). But its not much worse than doing a summer track day and having a mechanical issue or going off track and damaging something that way (like tires/rims/suspension components). Everything fun with cars has a risk, just a matter of minimizing the risk and maximizing the fun.

it wasn't the impact, it was the ripping backwards out of the snow bank it didn't like

mine was definitely the impact (1st day) and the tow out on the 2nd day didn't help things either
