^ ya - no damage. Mostly good came from this - because it was close to damage.. you know those near death experiences when everything slows down and there's an amazing sense of clarity.. it wasn't near death or anything but it did feel like time was about 10% normal speed and I had complete recognition of what was happening: "Second day with my car and here we go, going to wreck into the side of that pickup."

So it was close enough to totally get my attention - RWD is nothing like my AWD subbie! (:
