Default My GS300..... Very sad day for me..
Going to work on a Saturday morning... Blew out right rear tire and then...



Thanks to everyone for the kind words.. I did get my neck/shoulders checked out, and I'm ok..

To make a long story short, driving about 70mph on the freeway; heard some weird noise from the rear right; loud B A N G!; drift the car a little bit; got control; tried to pull over to the center median; came onto the soft shoulder (dirt) and LOST control; Scraped the front end on the center guard rail; spun the car to a stop.. All in about 22 seconds..
