sorry to hear that dude, sounds like you lost control or maybe hit a mysterious patch of "black ice" that caused you to wipe out. What is insurance going to do about it?

well it was really a mix of things that caused it and im not sure what happend really

it just started raining HARD and i need new tires on the back and the traction control was off for some reason with out the liht being on saying that its not on

got into a skid and counter steered (big drifter i am ) and it went straight for the curb and could not stop it hell i sprained my foot i was so hard into the brakes

but looks like its a total loss so im looking like a total loss

Default Get Drilled And Slotted Rotors!!!

MAN, that is harsh! Well it was good meeting you out at the races, and I'm sure you'll have another F-body ready to go by Desert Nationals 2K6. I am a firm believer in Drilled and Slotted Rotors and I put them on every car I own, cept the Fords cause I really dont care about that car. But my wet braking is improved by 60%, as the holes vent the water, and the slots grip the pads. If you are looking for another F-body after the insurance kicks in, let me know. Did you have Full Coverage or just liability? Deductible etc? Loan payoff? The main thing is your OK, yeah another loss to the F-bodys, but we'd rather have you still alive and posting here. Also dont let the tow company keep your car, they will tell you they will pay for the tow and you owe them nothing, make sure to pay the $150 or whatever, or have it towed to your house, the insurance company will let you keep the car for $500-$2000 normally. Sell any of the parts you can if its a feesible.
