Wrecked the Z
I was headed to a friends house last night to hangout. Well about a mile from his house I hit a huge puddle and hydroplaned into a parked car. I was only doing like 40 to 50 at the time but it messed up the Z preety bad. The body shop thinks i snapped the front axle. The front tires wouldn't even turn on the Z when they were loading it on the flat bed. Im really sore and scraped up but other then that no injuries, I was really suprised the air bags didnt deploy. I missed hitting a fire hydrant by about 4 inches (you can see it in the second picture in the back). I broke the other guys axle also, you can see his back tire is like bent up. His car was parked straight before i hit it by the way. But anyways heres some pics.

Man I feel for you. I was going down the highway two weeks ago and hydroplaned and totaled my car...I know the feeling. 40 is believable. You can hydroplane at 35MPH and depending on the road, it is very likely.

was reading and figured .. yea I can see sliding into a parked car on the side of the road .. not hard
then the pics came .. .. that other car was nowhere near the road
as for your body shop .. you might want to find another one before you get charged to replace the snapped front axle you dont have
