Unhappy Oh *hit

I was at Tony's when he took your call..

He gave a short version of the story.

We pulled the car in the garage, and connected the ZCarPC to
his cell phone.

Saw the pictures of the tunnel and damage. A heart breaker..

Good to hear no injuries..

Keep us informed on the repairs.

Cheers Amy -

Holy crap!!! Glad you're OK Sharif. Could have been worse, You could have be the one stuck with the Pontiac Aztec, LOL.

For the record, those of you with VDC, if you're turning it off on canyon run, you're absolutely nuts.

HOLY CRAP SHARIF! That's awful man. And you took the time to NOT go on the last run here, and this is what happens??? Wow, I am soooooooooo sorry. Glad you're o.k. though. As much as it pains me to see, and I worry every damn day I take my baby out, or on a run.......but being hurt in an accident is the worst. I am still in physio from last Feb's rear ender. Glad to know you're stirred but not shaken.....

I mourn for your baby though....

See, ya just shoulda stayed in LA dude!

Hope things look up soon, take care of yourself.....

Don't tell him that! We like having him here.

I was actually riding with Sharif... this was the type of accident very few could have avoided. We were very fortunate no one was heading the other way through the tunnel.

I said it in the other thread, but I'll say it again... I'm very impressed with how composed everyone was following the accident. And I can say after riding 6+hours with Sharif, your loss is definitely NC's gain. He's a great guy.

McDuck's wondering if we may have to plan some sort of "meet half way meet" in the future and have a big party in Texas somewhere. I could handle a partial cross-country drive! and if the NC's newest Stunta still is without Z, he can always hitch a ride with the Duck... just a thought...

Man! I saw your other thread and it just makes my heart sink everytime I see those pictures of the Z's I'm sure that you all will be back on the road again really soon. As Frenzee said, it could have been worse. At least you got that N02 Impalla!
