Looking at the Pic in his Sig I am pretty it was his car and he was put into the left lane and that lane had been very SLIPPERY all night and his car was spinning and went over a spot where everybody else was getting very loose and he lost it and hit the wall on the right side head on.He walked away but from what I car was a total loss.Major Front end Damage.

That just sucks. But all that matters is he walked away. I also take it he wont beable to claim it on insurance.

If that was your car, sorry that happened. But also, THANK YOU for being behind me in the staging lanes. I only pulled 3 passes all night. If that crash happened before I could make my third pass I woulda hurt you, j/k. Seriously, if that was yours, that sucks.

If the cops took a report there on the spot, your insurance wont cover it. Did they talk to you at all? Or get your information? If not, call your insurance and say you hit a patch of oil on the road and it went into a brick wall or somethin. Then say you had it towed home since it was just your car and no others. They wont know the difference.

Hey Emoney97ss ,

Whats goin on w/ the car. I'm curious as to if your insurance is gonna cover your "crash". If not, are you gonna part it out?

To be honest i haven't even called the insurance i'm still confused on what i'm going to do.... the car in storage now.... I doubt i'll be parting it out cause i love those car so much, and i'll have another sometime soon.... I may sell the interior because there isn't no need for it... its not exactly the best though, the driver seat has a rip in it and the sides are kind of cracked so if i sold all that stuff it wouldn't be for much.... I also might sell the rims and tires off of it.. they are black zo6 motorsport rims... i'll may let those go for 400 or 500.... i'm thinking about pulling the motor out and stroking it to a 402.... but to be honest with everyone i really thought i could handle the horsepower that it had... and that made me really doubt that i can handle a car like that.... so for now i'm done with the racing....
