Tank vs RX-8

An M1A1 Abrams tank backed over his RX-8 at GDC (he moved there a few months
ago) which was parked well away from everyone to avoid dings...

OUCH!!!!

Notice from that picture that it was the only car parked directly inline with the hangar door. I wonder if everyone else knew something he didn't? He should have just taken his chance with the door dings by parking where everyone else does!

A - Notice how f'ing strong the cage on that car is. If he was sitting in the car, he would probably have had no major damage

B - I like the fact he has a good attitude about it.

Great Pics!!!
