So what's your question?

Do you need driving lessons? Yes.

Hi,

I thought most drift courses didnt have curbs?....

I would just jack up the vehicle and inspect where the damage is, particulary around the suspension components.

passengers rear hit the curb and drivers front

will not engage gears while sitting still once moving it will only go into 2nd and 5th gear and its hard to get into then

Jack up the rear of your car and rotate the wheel and see if it has any type of wobble to it.

I wish I could of been there when I saw you hit the curb, I would of laughed and then hit you in the face or vice versa. It only took you two months to crash your Mustang, my guess is your age begins with a 1. Grow up dumb*ss.
