I give you the now Infamous Bucket Story:
The bucket was 2 years ago. Gather around the campfire boys and girls, Uncle Jedi has a story to tell!
So there we are on a fine saturday morning making our annual pilgrimage to the Holy Land of Rotaries (aka SevenSTock) and all is going well. The caravan had over 75 cars in it that year and as we're approaching our exit off the 5 freeway I see it. It's coming RIGHT at me, no remorse, no regard for our finely detailed cars, it's screaming down the freeway with with reckless abandonment, it's a BUCKET!!!
I barely have enough time to process what's about to happen and I YANK the wheel to my right, BARELY avoiding our new found enemy. I hear a strange noise from the side of my car and it's then that I realize that the bucket just barely missed me and knicked my back left tire.
The bucket goes shooting into the air like a rocket with deadly intentions and this time it won't miss its mark.
I watch in my rear view mirror as the bucket bounces directly in front of an RX-8 and SMASHES into it's front bumper and hood. The bucket has completed it's suicide mission and the damage is now done, Wing5 has been hit.
The bucket didn't break anything other then our pride but it did manage to scrape part of the bumper and the front of Wing's hood. I spent almost an hour in the staging area with a clay bar (don't ask why I had one handy) and some wax (again, dont ask) and was able to make most of the scrape marks disappear.
That bucket may have won the battle but we won the war as the SoCal SevenStock caravan lives on!
