Re: Audi crash: split into 3 sections?

[Tamara J Collins <tcollins@hopper.unh.edu>]

split in 3 pieces huh? seems to be pretty unlikely if you own any model
made before 88 like my car for example weighs 3350 or more lbs like its
really going to split in three pieces.  It takes a lot to put even the
tiniest dent in it...
