While a lot of people do go drink and drive...if you do and get in a wreck with no one else hurt thats good results, I dont WANT you to get hurt but it hopefully will give you a wakeup call for being stupid..anyways I'm 20 and go party I've never drank more than two beers in an 1 and 1/2 and drove home. I'll spend the night in my TA before I drive it drunk at all(then again I actually like my car untotaled). ITS AS SIMPLE AS THAT.

I know how you feel about having your car totaled out, Mine got wrecked by some pothead that ran a red light light in a tundra!
then I stripped it down....
Saved the parts and chopped it up for scrap...

The only good I see in this is that you didn't kill some poor innocent family driving home.

+1 for Drunk driving being ******* stupid.. I'm 20 and have known ~8 who've died from Alcohol and drug related things.
If you were tipsy and you got behind a wheel, you deserve a hefty DUI, no insurance money, and you need your ride completely wrecked so you DO learn your lesson.. People who luck out never really learn it..
Drugs are stupid and drinking is stupid in my opinion.. Drink a damn Cherry Coke, because you're obviously not responsible enough to drink.

man i know how u feel about wanting to stay away form ls1's i wrecked my car basically running from the cops after a race...but im glad i still have the car and i really learned a lesson...learn from your mistake and dont give up on ls1's
wow... just got back from a trip to hawaii and this thread sure blew up.
far as my drinking behind the wheel.... everyone and anyone can make their statements as its completely acceptable. i was just showing the community more of a lesson learned and deserve and believe in punishment for my stupid actions.
....anyways the car is totalled and estimated ~ $15k to fix, possibly more. the claim is still in progress and it seems that i get the blue book value and if i have reciepts of any custom work i did to it then i get that back as well. thats probably around $5k-10k
...still comptimplating whether i should come back to the LS1 world

i may see what it takes to fix it

i will just update here i suppose.... i will be parting out most of the car if not all of it depending if the frame is bent or not. either way i know for sure i will be parting out the block and the rims/tires so i set up a seperate thread in the for sale section when that time comes
