F*** I am glad to hear that you dont have any major injuryes. Maybe you can get a cheaper used one with some mod or better yet go old school and get a 240z. Just glad to hear you are OK.

I'm glad that you're alive.

I'm glad that you didn't injure or kill someone else.

"Thanks" for the 350Z high insurance rate.

you know I hear this alot and up until this point I have not had an accident or ticket in 15 years and my insurance on this car was $93.00 a month. The rates on these cars are high, it always has been, i find it hard to believe that I have contributed significantly to these high rates.....

The email I got was blank. My company filters alot of our email content. So they might have erased it. Do you think the rim giving way is a deffect of the rim? Do you think you could have gained control if the rim did not brake?

I have been asking myself that very question because you can't turn right without a left front wheel(genius i know) and the next time i get to see the car I am going to take the center cover off(of the wheel) and see if the wheel fractured.....

do you know how hard(speed) your impact was...i only ask because my fuqing chest is killing me, granted it is better than any of the alternative(worse wise) but man it hurts....and yeah, i always wear a seatbelt, even if I am in the backseat of someones car.....in this case it saved my life

Another one bites the dust.

And I thought my door ding sucked. That's like a thousand times worse and self inflicted.

Glad you're ok at least.

good to know your safe; if your headlights are perfectly intact and unscratched, then sell them to me, thanks!

Wow man. An unfortunate end to a beautiful car. Glad to hear you're ok, and that you didn't injure anyone else during the airshow.

(As an aside, it's great to see the total lack of insulting posts that usually follow these "I did something stupid" posts).

Let us know what you choose next!!! Hope your chest feels better in the coming days.

Thanks kcobean......I think I eleviated the idiocy by saying I did something stupid and not trying to defend it, hard to argue with that.....I am not leaving the site even if I have to settle on something else for a year or so.....I will definately be driving a Z again one day(just alot slower)...and man, if I had it I would make an offer on your car......

Yep, you did good. I'm not leaving the site either. This is a great community to hang out in.

You should get one of these....this is my replacement for the Z:

LOL...It wasn't THAT expensive (sure does look like it though, don't it? ).

I'll post up some stories (maybe even some Z kills, just to make me feel better about selling mine. )

does it ever, i love the way the viper looks coming straight at you, tough looking car...

lol...you have to post all your kills....and if you ever get a chance I always wanted to know(in a street race) Viper vs. Z06....I would think the viper would stomp it but I would love to hear about it first hand(i am not a big vette fan)
