well the other day after school my mate needed an lift home (dirt road) an it had rained an fair bit that day.
anyway on the way to his house we got bogged. luckly i wasnt bogged to my my side skirts just enough that i couldnt get any grip.
1/4 tank of fuel, 20 mins later and 200 naughty words later i got out
now my car is a little slugish an is 1 sec slower to 100 then it was 4 days before hand from stop still. its 1000ks over due for a service so would that be all that would be wrong with it or have i done some bad damage?

My first bit of advice would be to hose off the mud from under the car (you could be carrying 100KG of mud!) and secondly I'd check that you haven't squashed or buckled your exhaust pipe.

Maybe what Hako suggested. You may have damaged your cat, exhaust pipe, or muffler.
