It only happens once, and that one time will be enough for the car to possibly, end your life. I´m also bummed about this:




Jamie, do you mean that the parts have been moved out of line/place? For real?
If you read Jamie's post carefully you will notice that he has a FBO tuned car with huge additional power on tap. I have no doubt that he was going over 290-300 km/h real speeds, the kind of speeds which is really over the top for our lovely little brick called 1M

Just don't make this kill your enthusiasm for purchasing a 1M, otherwise you can never be too careful, that's for sure.
