Spark plug wire popped off while in traffic

Well in owning 7's since 92, I have never had this problem. But I had the trailing 2 wire pop off while stuck in traffic this afternoon. When I got home, popped the hood could see the spark coming out of the plug jacket. Put it back on and everthing seems to be running fine. Do any of the guru's think I could have done any major damage? Thanks guys!

Nah, you're fine. If it was the S5 you just bought that means it's a sign you should give it to me.

yes it was a S5, 91 black on black vert. But I dont think I want to give it up. Hell I have yet to see it or drive it. I cant wait to get back home to drive it! No dont worry my family is looking after it for me. So if you can get it from my mom who has wanted a vert for years, well good luck! Also thanks for info!

Yea I know, I got a few pics from my brother. it has 67k on, a few hail dents. So minor that you have to look for them. My brother told me it was about 9 out of 10 on the paint and about 8.5 our of 10 for the interior. just minor wear hear and there. And this was all for 2700. I was going to get a new paint job, but well I did and a new car to go with it!
