Close race!

Ha! Snakeman,

I just posted a story that happened to me about a week ago ("Wounded Fox (Flesh wound)"). During mid race with a modded GN, I hear this loud bang come from my car

. Turns out that my fan hit my fan shroud. It tore up the fan shroud and also broke off one of the fan blades which flew off and dented the hood from the inside

.

Your's wedged?? Man. Fortunately, a friend was riding with me and I stayed at his house that night (5 minutes away. mine was about 30 minutes away) and fixed it the following morning. Now I'm in search of a fan shroud.
