Why does it show 0.06 Gs when it is sitting still? Is it because of the slope?

Wooooow, must not be a corvette enthusiast. I would've known that could've been on before I flew through the freaking parking garage at 50 mph.

While I'm glad the system works properly, and the person should be reprimanded, I don't think it was that bad. Considering everything was OK afterwards. Had he had an accident then it would be a different story. This is why my car never go to valets if I can avoid them.

I'd be more concerned that he crunched the nose on the concrete wall than the fact he punched it a little.....I pay the valet guys and then tell them I'll park it myself.

1000 interweb points says you'd feel differently if that was your car.

Hence why I said I don't valet my cars. Once again he brought the car to 50. did he peel the tires? Did he pull the e brake? Did he do a burn out? Did he take it for a joyride out of the complex like ferris buller? Did he let the car redline for miles in 1st gear like another video posted in here?

I'm not saying not to yell at the kid or take action against him all I'm saying is that it wasn't THAT bad. You can't expect a valet to baby a hot sports car. That's like bringing ribs to a weight waters
Meeting. You know what's going to happen....

I'm unsure about him hitting the wall like some have stated when he parked it. If the car was damaged the know it's time to bring the pain.

Hell you will get it anywhere. I took my car to the dealer last week for body work and come to find out. They outsource that. They put 10 miles on my car and they must of been beating on it pretty good they ran my avg. mpg from 21 to 15.8 and I am hard in my car and have yet to do that
