I hear ya. I got home a little before 5 PM today and just fell on the couch. I'm guessing I slept 10-12 hours since Thursday.

Edit: theyre fine. friend of mine in a 325i was directly in front of the 350Z when the headon happened. stopped to help & file a witness report.

We heard about the wreck during dinner on Saturday, at that time the rumor was that it was our widebody vert, which we didn't bring this weekend. That car was a replica of Russell's (Z1) widebody car that we built for a customer. Looks like it could've been pretty serious, glad to see that everyone came out ok from the accident.

heres the tale of the tape from my friend in the 325i lol

[22:39] Lucas: I was going around a semi-gentle right hander
[22:40] Lucas: beauty of a white 350Z behind me...Bob's favorite of the day, actually
[22:40] Lucas: that Kamaal guy in the widebody 300ZX comes around the corner...sideways
[22:40] Lucas: at least one front tire was in my lane, maybe a foot or a foot and a half of bumper
[22:41] Lucas: I register enough to apparently get over and say "he lost it", right before he careens past me and head-ons the white Z
[22:41] Lucas: I saw it kinda-sorta in the rearview, and definitely heard it
[22:42] Lucas: contemplated running...dunno why...then started looking for a turnaround. passed killboy, told him he dumped it bad, and found a place to pull off
[22:42] Lucas: smoked a cigarette and got out to see if he'd clipped my bumper
[22:42] Lucas: I really, really don't know how he didn't hit me
[22:43] Lucas: he ended up facing the way I was going
[22:43] Lucas: I'd say when he passed my door, he was pointed right at me

Dang. Lucky no one was hurt this year. People tend to outdrive their ability it seems. If you are out of your lane your at fault.

Honestly, there didn't seem to be near as many people this year as there were last. The vibe of the whole event was not as energetic as last year either. Probably because the rain/humidity put a damper (no pun intended) on things Friday. Oh well, let's hope next year will be sunny for the whole event.
