Well yesterday I was taking my brand new in the box rods to my machinest and put them on top of my car to load some things in the back seat of the DD. Yeah you know what happens next. I drive off and get all the way to school when I realised I never put the box in the damn car.I called my buddy who lives next door and he goes searching. The box was in pieces in the middle of the road, and the rods had been ran over a few times. I took a look this morning and they are scratched a little and no major chunks are missing. I am taking them to get looked at today to see if there still good. I will take pics later and post them so yawll can see them. Well figured id share.

Yeah well see about the strength, if they are compromised I will not run them but if my boss says there ok there a go.

And No no puff puff at all just a full time job, a part time job and taking a class at the local Community college.
