That really sucks man, sorry to hear about that. **** happens. Hopefully you'll get some money out of this and you can build up that LSx 3rd gen that you've been wanting to do.

I'd also be interested in the rims but I already have 10 rims and four are Firehawks.

FYI guys, these are the rims he had on his car:

Damn, that sucks man! I know how you feel.

Try to buy it back if you have the money. I should have bought mine back, but I had no money to do so.

if you do buy it back, these cars are not that hard to fix. alot of times because of being mostly fiberglass and plastic they look alot worse than they really are... did your air bags go off? thats usually the most expensive thing to replace. glad to hear nobody was hurt though.

Yeah true. I wish I could get a new camaro, thats the last thing on my mind. If we werent so slow at the shop I would'nt care half as much, cuz I would just get another one. Things could always be worse.

I am so sorry to hear about your TA but I am glad you are ok. Your car was one of my favorite TA's around but it can be replaced. I might be picking up one for a daily.

I got over confident and went to sideways on the drift and it just hooked up. I hate this feeling, I keep thinking WHY! I'll eventually get another one, and I'm gonna make it look just like this one did.

Sounds like you were drifting where you shouldn't have been.

I did that once, ended up snapping a rear axle on a curb in a previous car.
Needless to say I don't drift unless there's room to drift..and I especially wouldn't drift near any drop offs.

You're ok and that's the most important thing. If I were you I'd buy a clean roller and swap it in. I happen to know of a guy with a very clean '02 WS6 roller in is garage.
