Hard to appreciate from the photo -- but it's a good 20' drop off.

Amazingly nothing but pride and ego were damaged.



I've since had the back end twitch on me at the same spot she lost it, but
with much less exiting results.

Once you fix it up -- goto an HPDE and get a feel for car control and really enjoy that Boxster.
