Default G80 blew, truck spun out... carnage!!!

so i went around a corner, and I jumped on the throttle, hanging the truck out sideways. Rear end locked up. I spun out...... slapped a curb rashing two drivers side rims. when it hit the curb, it snapped the rear axle shaft right behind the rotor, basically ripping the whole driverside rear wheel/rotor assembly off the truck!!!

we'll find out what gm wants to pay for, and what they don't on monday. I'm sure words will be said!!

Oh god that sucks!!!!! When GM fixes that, make them give you the G80 back so you can go somewhere and tie a stick of dynamite to it!!!
