Sorry to hear about your Vette. I never looked at their crash test ratings, but fiberglass cars never look too good after getting hit! ZR1 next?

Sell him a GT-R, Joe! That will cheer him up.

Crash

Thanks. That screen name was definitely earned. I hit a mountain side going to fast through the canyons with my Trans Am. LOL

I'm doing ok... Just a gash on the side of my foot. No biggie.

I'm going to buy another C5 Z06. Lots of the C6 guys that C5Zs have been selling their C6s because they're too tame. The C5s have a more raw feeling to them. And honestly, they look better to me. I'll move up to a C6 when I can afford a 2009+ Z06.

Yeah, actually, the cops that were still on the scene jumped in their car, warned the tow truck driver about the pursuit and then boned out really fast down white oak. They left their cones which are still sitting on the side walk. That's definitely crazy. I saw at least 6 cops in 2 minutes including CHP go through that intersection.

Interestingly enough, the car isn't fiberglass. They stopped using fiberglass on the C5s. They use a new material called MPC which is "molded plastic composite"... Although it does seem to break like fiberglass, but it's a lot lighter and easier to fix. (Not like I'm getting this car back anyway. LOL)

Yeah, actually that would.


By the way here's some daytime shots of the damage:
