You actually snatched "WOW" from my mouth. Looks amazing Ryan :tup:

Yup, I loved my Z. If the motor was making all kinds of noises...I would still have it. Actually, if the old man who backed into my car didn't do that, I'd probably have a built motor boosted Z.

The Viper hates me though. I've had the car for 15 months. I've gone through 2 motors and now an accident :(
Ha, that's exactly what I said when I was driving in the rain.
Thanks, man! It's always nice to hear from one of the OGs.


BUUTTTTTTTT my car is down AGAIN! A rolling shot taken today during a Poker Run...nice!

And then about 30 minutes later...my bad luck with the car continues. Notice the clouds in the above picture? Well, the skies let loose a few minutes later. Going down a slight hill, there was standing water at the bottom. I notice it and drop a gear, as to not hit the breaks and throw the weight of the car forward (we were driving cautiously and under the speed limit due to the conditions...maybe 50mph? I just know I went from 5th to 4th). As soon as I hit the puddle, it was over. The rear kicked out hard to the right. I was heading straight for the guardrail on the opposite side of the road (thank God there wasn't any traffic coming at the time, as there were a bunch of semis on the road). I corrected and the rear spun the other way back towards the guardrail to my right. As I'm facing the opposite direction, I see KDR83 in his silver GTS spinning out as well. Thankfully, he did not hit anything. My rear smacked the guardrail and then the front lightly hit it as well.

The rear quarter is cracked, rear bumper is cracked, taillight and reverse light are cracked, front fender is scraped, both driver's side HREs are curbed, and the driver's side rear wheel's toe is off. The positive thing about the story...no one was hurt!

The guardrail I hit. I was coming toward the view the picture was taken. There was a stream of water running from the right of the screen to the left...

wow

Damn.

Thank God that you walked away from this one. But man, you got some bad karma going on. :icon14: You need a voodoo priest or something to chase it away.

Damn bro well Ouya nothing that can't be fixed and I'm glad you're ok.

This is why I avoid at all costs driving my car in the rain. Glad everyone is ok.

Yeah, the speedlimit was 60mph and we were probably doing 50mph? It could have been MUCH worse.
I swear, I'm a nice guy. I don't do drugs. I haven't committed any crimes. I have high morals and stick to them. I'm not a womanizer. For some reason, cars hate me though:shakes head:
I wasn't even going to go because I knew there was rain in the forecast, but they said it would be patchy. We didn't hit any rain from 9:30-12 and then the skies let loose.

yea I think on wet surfaces, vehicles CAN start to hydroplane 35 mph, although there is no official speed in which it starts as it depends on a multiple of factors.

your shop must love you lol. but we love that car!

Glad your okay.. Looks like some of it will buff out could have been a lot worse. Dude I'm glad you drive :driving: the sh_t out of your car, I can't stand a show queen but that car is Cursed.

Just for the hell of it, have the car blessed before you get her back on the road. :tup:

I looked up the area on Google Maps and found out where there was water running from left to right...look at the white drain :mad::mad::mad:

Damn!! I am so sorry to hear that.

and the streak of bad luck continues... sorry to hear that bro. :(

Think you need to have some tail sex with your car. Make it feel loved.

Time to be a ****, do drugs, commit a felony, have no morals and womanize right now. It will be worth it!:p

Dude. Glad you're ok. You have some bad luck in the car world!

Any updates Ryan?! Hope all is well.

The body shop is backed up and still not done with my car...it's been 2 months today since the accident. The car has been ripped apart for weeks. There was consderable damage under the skin of the car (original estimate was just under $7k and now it's up to $12k not including the suspension yet). The rear tub was cracked. It's at prep/paint now. Three of the 4 HREs have been refinished. I at least got a couple pictures of my hood and bumper today. I can't wait to see this damn hood on the car. It will transform it! I am selling my townhome. It was under contract within 7 days of listing it! I REALLY don't want to sell the Viper, but it would really help for a down payment on a nicer single family home. It would probably be easier if I had been enjoying my car over the last 18 months, but I haven't and that's why I really don't want to get rid of it.

A lot of work is required to remove the top

damn bro, sell that ******* pig, and buy yourself a baller house and a kia....

and then a 458

Sorry to see this man but at least your alright. That new hood is gonna be awesome!

Any up-dates?

Well, I've had the car back for a week now. I debuted it a FL2K last weekend and I won 1st place domestic in the car show! Not a bad way to make a debut. A picture from me pulling into the event was featured on Stancenation's Instagram. Not a bad first week...

I went to get my headers/throttle bodies/exhaust finally installed today, but my car wouldn't fit on any of the lifts at the shop... So the wait continues to find out what all this horsepower talk is all about. I still need to take the car back to the body shop because there are areas I'm not happy with, but it's just nice to have the car back for a bit after a 3 month downtime.

Look who's back in a VQ! I just bought this 2006 G35 coupe 6mt today for my new daily. Anyone want to buy some 20" Vossens with good tread life left? I'm looking for some 19"s, coilovers, and a lip.

You have VQ blood running deeeeeeep! Viper looks great as always, G is sexy too in the white, one of my favorite colors for that car. Hope all is well and have a great new year!
