    Tomorrow is going to be rough day at work for that executive. In his defense he hit a major bump, while getting on the gas.

    He’ll definitely need his big boy drawers on at work tomorrow, OR whenever he returns to work.

    Their press release/report says that the weather played a factor as well. Didn't realize that sunny weather could affect a street car?

    Sabre699 Wait...hold my beer.

    GM blamed "weather" and "track conditions" for the crash.
    They left out "moron at the wheel" syndrome.
