I made it home! I crimped the bad brake line shut with the vice grips and then I limped home (It held pressure). I didn't use the brakes at all on the freeway and then used the hand brake once I got into town. Thankfully I had manual transmission so I could down shift.
So it looks like I ripped my brake line on my sway bar bolt. I looked at the other side and it is all bent out of shape too.
Had a great time though!

Heading to Funny Rocks Saturday with a couple others. We will be meeting at the park and ride at 160th and 405 at 9am.
We will be hitting it from FS roads from I90. My first time accessing it from this side.
Snowfall is dropping down to 3000 ft. so we should get to play in the first snow. Yay!

Great Video Anthony!
Is your steering wheel out of center? If so, that would be the cause of your ESP light.
It is very easy to fix. You just need to align your front wheels so they are straight (regardless of which way the steering wheel has turned). And then loosen the 2 15mm bolts holding the adjustment sleeve on the drag link. Then rotate the sleeve clockwise or counter clockwise until your steering wheel is straight. Once loose the collar may rotate freely or might require a little extra force with vice grips or channel locks.
