Hit them going about 75. Luckily I was the only one seriously injured. Ankle was dislocated, tore all the ligaments, broke the tibia and fibula…. then i get staph infection 8 weeks later which is why they cut the big hole in teh ankle...

Year anniversary coming up. My ankle still gives me problems.

Got dam son glad your okay man that **** hurt. Any hand or foot mauling is the worst

Don't do the G35. Those are chick cars. At least the 350Z has a lil' bit of masculinity about it. G37 possibly, or the new 370Z would be fun.

Sorry for your loss!

I'm still trying to figure out why people still go 60 in these cars in the rain. Not trying to knock on you but there seems to be at least 2 posts a month in here about f-body's hydroplanning in the rain. You'll never see me go over 40 in the rain even with all-season tires. 25 years driving these cars I have yet to have one get away from me in the rain.

They safe in the rain, you just can't be a dumb *** out there. Most people I see wreck on here on the forums are driving in the rain with D/R. We all know that's a big No No. This is my second F-body and I drove them both through all the elements with ease.

Very sad man I hate to see a clean Fbody go down like that.
