Default Wrecked it!

It appears my baby is totalled. I may be able to salvage the engine and drive train to start over.

On a back country road shifting into 3rd when a groundhog darted out in front of me. that's a pretty good sized animal and would do lots of damage so I yanke the wheel left then back to right when the back end started sliding out. I gave it a little gas to power it out of the slide but had no luck. Slid up an embankment went airborn and hit a telephone pole about 1/4 the way up. The pole was below road level since this is a very hilly area. Snapped the pole! I had my 12 yr old daughter with me and we both got out and walked away unhurt! The fiberglass isn't much but Unique makes one heck of a strong frame!

Hope the pic works.
