Glad to hear that you're ok. I heard a Z was wrecked on the HWY about a week ago. I work in an Emergency Room and I hear a lot from the ambulance guys. I don't mean to sound to harsh or straight forward but you mentioned you saved the motordyne exhaust... do you intend on selling it?

Despite the scary story. I could not help but chuckle at this.
I'm glad you're okay.

That sucks big time. I'm with everyone else, thank God you walked away from it, could have been a lot worse. I hear you about how emotionally attached you can become with your Z, I felt the same emotions about mine like 6 months ago. Glad to hear you're okay though man, and EVO X is a very wise choice!

so sad about the zed, but that's great that you made it out without problems!

i've been to st louis a few times and it's good that their traffic isn't near as bad as other places otherwise it may have been a different outcome!

good luck with the evo x. i think we're part of the minority liking those LOL I would have suggested a blob or hawk eye sti!!

it's funny you mention the traffic, bc when i spun, there was a wide open clearing of traffic - during rush hour. i can't even imagine what would've happened if i spun into traffic 5-10 seconds later.

Still trying to convince the wife she wants to give up her Z for one of those instead of a Juke. (I do like the Juke too)

Juke vs EVO X? No contest! EVO X vs Z, on the other hand, is a little more difficult to decide!

The damage doesn'tlook that bad. Look like an accident from drifting events. What makes it so damn expensive to repair back there?

Cars can be replaced, your body can not.
Wow, i've had many tripple digit motorcycle wrecks and never had rash like that.

From what i saw with my own two eyes... Unibody frame damage, suspension damage, rear diff damage, wheel damage, cosmetic/body damage, passenger curtain airbag deployed, passenger seat airbag deployed, door panel damage... Im sure there was more than that wrong. I was hit by an 18 wheeler, HARD! Maybe in an econo box this would be cheap but in a 350z...

I know how you feel. This recently happened to me and resulted in $20K of damages.
