Oops, dropped ur Lotus off the Lift
 
Check this out. Guy went to get his tires changed and they dropped the car off the lift. Not good.

Ironically enough, this is the second time today that I've seen links to this incident...

Note to self: start reading instructions... ;)

reminds me abit of that 1980's movie about the kid that wants a Lambo so bad, he actually gets one but it gets towed away by a crane like tow truck... litterally lifted straight up in the air by the front-end with the rear end swinging near the ground.

Who knew that the front tires were that heavy. Take them off and WHAM! :eek:

I can't even look at that... it hurts. The other thing that's kind of remarkable are the wisea** comments and laughing smiles on that forum. Seems to be alot more comradarie on this and other Porsche forums.

That's some tough luck.
