Complete Destruction :(
On Friday Night I rolled my vette..
Story was, I had it on cruise at 50 mph (i really was going 50, noone believes me but the cops confirmed the speed from the skid marks)..
Anyway, i smacked my head pretty hard so I have trouble remembering but I remember overcorrecting like crazy and smashing into a ravine..
I think I was looking down and a turn came up, this is the only reason I can see me losing control of the car.. I will get another, not anytime soon, need to take a break :P O and im alright by the way, couple scrates and again my head hurts
R.I.P.

Sorry to hear it, but I'm glad to hear you're OK.
These are safe cars and they'll treat you right. I can understand the break, but I'm sure we all look forward to you getting another.
Anything salvageable? Or is the insurance just taking the car?
