Talking jumping your 7/wrecking it

i was just curious if you guys have ever jumped your 7? my brother used to have a first gen 7 and he jumped the all American canal with it and it shot the struts right through the hood it was pretty awesome. so if you have any stories like that it would be awesome to hear them

this thread is awsome!!!

I bought my first FB in the summer after hs for $500 running perfectly, I didn't know **** but it was fun to drive and my plan was to rally the **** out of it then jump it off this huge rail road track jump in Kirkland and get something else, fast forward today. I learned that car was super fun and never ended jumped it like I intended to but... instead I drove it and loved it for 4 years until I bought another nicer FB to replace it, a turbo swap FB with 305rwhp
Haha this thread hit me in a funny way

My Fail Story:

I jumped a curb into a bush one time when i first bought my 90' GTU. I was turning and my boost hit in second right when i found a wet spot XD. I got surprised when i realized i was completely sideways, and over corrected into a curb at a gas station :[. Luckily it was 3am, but for some reason there were cars at every light at that particular intersection. Completely ruined the white motegis' on the front..
Needless to say i was pretty upset when i limped it to my friends down the street and surveyed the damage..
