Cracked frame. :(

[rocco_crossing@hotmail.com (Rhett Farnum)]

I'm more scared than Dan I think. Mine has been used for autoxing only 
(still streetable though) for a very long time. I don't believe there is any 
sort of support under there. YIPES!!!!! I'M REEEAAALLY SCARED TO LOOK!!!

Peace Out,

Rhett
