What's been unsaid is that the 350Z saved another couple of lives. The cabin held up well and the front subframe crumpled as it was designed to do--absorbing energy and allowing the driver and passenger to walk away from a multiple rollover shunt. We forget that serious injuries (broken arms, legs, internal injuries, etc.) or deaths used to routinely happen in accidents like this. Nissan's design team should be commended for each time yet another crumpled Z give up its lifespan to preserve human lives!
Too bad some lessons are definately learned the hard way. Too bad the Z had to pay the price in the process in this case!
continue.....lol

Wrong has hell!!! They are rarely hurt and if they are, it is either minor bumps/bruises or they are really messed up. they also have full cages, hans device, instant support from EMT, etc. Comparing your Z to a Nextel Cup car is MAJOR fail...you need to save some face already, so don't post info that is way off. I will agree that the Z is made well, but you would be alot safer if you just didn't wreck it!

....and thats where you wrong. I posted this for others benefit, so they can make sure it doesnt happen to them. No matter what age you are, you have opened your z up before at least once to see what its got. Thats not even what I was doing. I was only shifting from 2nd to 3rd, and the conditions of the road caused me to lose control. Critisize me if you want, I dont care. The smarter ones will take what I intended out of it, and the ones like you will end up like me.

I feel like it will be a very positive thing for alot of my friends though. I have at least 6-7 friends with cars much faster than mine, and hopefully now they know what can happen to them. Also, pics will be sometime tommorow, when the yard opens.[/QUOTE]
I gotta believe by this statement you are implying many of your friends are also stupid 19 years olds -- as you decribed yourself in your first post. Unfortunately, there are too many out there who do not understand and/or respect the power of vehicles (whether it be a Z or a **** box). As I said, some lessons are learned the hard way, but it is a sad commentary when it takes a rollover to open your eyes, or that of the friends you reference. I'm glad you are okay, but maybe you and your group of friends should do everyone else a favor and park your cars and ride bikes, skateboards or walk. Next time everyone might not be so lucky.

I stated what I did (about you needing to save face) because of some of your other posts (racing a bike...and while I may have opened it up with no one around, I will NEVER race a bike because I have patients who raced a car on a bike...don't put me in a class with yourself) because you continually are posting things that are incorrect or provide others with even more proof that young drivers should not have a Z.
The only thing I argued with you about was your post #67 above: It really had nothing to do with your wreck but in your extreme misinformed statement that most nextel drivers are injured when, in fact, they are rarely injured due to the extreme safety measures taken...the same safety measures taken with F1, Ralley, Etc.

Your right though guys, we should all be hard on the 19 year old that had an accident like so many people do. Then, we have 10+ pages of forum members (hypocrites) as i would like to call them, who have went in speeds of 120+ mph on public roads, some as much as 150+, as listed in the thread below.
