my first "accident" wheel busted up

[Saleen Hobo]

took a corner to fast, hydro'd/drifted across uncontrollably and slammed into a curb, bounced forward fishtailed into opposite curb, and finally regained control. As you can see my loss of control was due to as soon as i impacted the first curb the wheel just smashed apart and it was an instant flat. Luckily i was first in line at the turn or i would've nailed someone else, caught a glimpse of a yellow mazda 6 in my rear when i was trying to correct myself JUST BARELY miss me.

The damage isn't too bad, its a good thing there wasn't anyone else coming :o. I'd have to find it and take a pic to show you, but my sister swerved off the road in my truck to avoid an oncoming car, a rock got caught in one of the spokes and it hit the caliper and ripped the wheel apart, along with the steering rack and bent the frame 10 mm back.
