I think all the vets have givin up on the young crashed the z crowd.
Sux you crashed your car. Best mod for you to get is REAL drving lessons.
Your young it happens it just sux it had to happen in one of our cars...
One more reason i cant talk my insurance company down.
Go sell your z buy a 240 start a drift build and stay away from supras
oh and keep the accelerating and losing controll idea on the track
safer for the rest of us.

I just got my Z 2 months ago and appreciate it so much that I don't do stupid things in it or try to get myself killed. I've waited since 2003 to own one so I don't plan on messing that up. Also 27 years old with no tickets or accidents, I do not street race or act stupid. So my Z is not destined to be crashed unless it's someone else's carelessness on the road. I also have a 300whp WRX that's never been abused like most would of that power and has only seen the dragstrip very few times... It's expensive to mod these cars and even more to fix them!

Another no VDC/Traction control and young age totals the Z.
Bought an 06 enthusiast no less than 6 months ago and I've already crashed my Z just this passed Tuesday 
I was getting on to the highway on ramp from at a stop light. The left turn towards the on ramp was unusually wide and the the intersection I had to cross was littered with these damn circular pavement markers.
So while accelerating, through the intersection my tires started slipping on the markers, by the time I cleared the intersection and was on the on ramp my back tires had lost all control. I fish-tailed twice, did a 180, which spun me around and caused my rear left tire to smash against a brick wall. After the bouncing off the wall from the first impact, the front left end of my Z grinds against the wall causing me to spin once more.
After coming to a stop completely perpindicular to the lane, I quickly moved to car off to the side of the ramp (luckily it had a wide shoulder).
Thank god me and my friend were unhurt, but I had literally lost my mind at this point, being this my first accident, my first car, and first near death experience. I pretty much went into shock and spent the next 20mins screaming and spazing out until my father and the tow truck finally showed up and brought me home....
Anyways, here's the aftermath, poor Z... =(
Though you can't see it all of the rims cracked except the one the rear right
