Sorry man, glad you made it through un harmed. That's always been a big fear of mine. About a year ago I was cruising in the Camaro down a 4 lane road and a lady on a cell phone pulls out of an apartment complex and didn't even look right! Luckily I noticed and changed lanes and slammed on the brakes. I pulled up beside her and told her to get off her ****** cell phone. They really need to come up with a stiff penalty for texting while driving. I think it should be mandatory that it's hands free as well. It's a huge contributor to me selling my motorcycle last month. Everytime I rode that thing my ass puckered watching all the morons attempt to drive to their destination.

Glad you're ok Matt and sorry to hear about (and now see) the accident. I'm sure that the guys at BOS will have you back on the road in no time (fingers crossed).

Look at the bright side - you can debut a new car at Del Mar again next year! (hopefully sooner)

Glad to hear you are OK! Keep us posted on Hagerty's involvement. I have them as well with a stated value policy and appraisal, etc. I hope for the best, but fear for the worst driving behind these yahoo's on their cell phones.

Oh man, I really feel for you. You could paint it a different color and it would be like you got a new car.

Wow...holy crap.

My "car vs wheel on the highway" incident pales in comaprison to that.

Glad you are okay........

So...gotta ask.....what were your first words to the lady when you got out of the car ?

Look at it this way....you can make it even better this time.
