Sorry to hear about the carniage!
How were the weather conditions when you lost it? Did you lose it on purpose and couldn't regain control, or did it happen on its own?
I'm just curious, cause I have a very high hp sc and would like some info.

Holy **** that is horrible; at least you are O.K. I didn't think the SC would lost cabin integrity like that, I've never seen the inside of the car affected like that. Thank God you are ok

... No one seems to believe that i was going 30ish, but i was. you have to think 3500lbs moving at 30mph hitting a 3ft squared area that doesnt give......thats a lot of freaking force to a small area. I had just left first gear and i only took that to like 3k. first gear tops out around 30, so there was no way i was going over 30ish. it was just all that torque and a slick road. the road there is quite tricky,
there is an abrupt drop off with a turn left, then right, while its dropping....weight transfers to the front, rear looses traction with any power, and having the steering wheel turned.......well it just spells disaster. imagine the corkscrew at laguna seca......
my room mate did the same thing in his car, my brother, my neighbor and countless others.....all the trees in the area have battle scares and there is more safety glass on the ground then there is grass.

Still glad you came out okay.
