im cool bro thanks. I was going 280s in the fastlane.
280 has some nasty areas that flood real bad

Gotta be safe out there, drive for conditions and never assume people are going to do the right thing.

Glad everyone is ok

Crazy thing yesterday as I was on my way to work.

I have seen four s2ks. within 20mins.
1 - black on the 880 southbound
2- silver on the dumbarton
1- yellow right before I parked @ work

LOL! I kinda of thought it was funny because I thought about how frogs come out when it rains hella hard or when its flooded! LOL

Earlier this winter, I was driving 280s crossing over Hwy 87 and hyrdoplaned. I could feel the car start to kick out sideways like I was in the D1GP. Scared shitless, I promplty exited and continued my journey on city streets.

Too many stupid ppl out there, no matter how safe you drive.

Sorry to hear about those accidents, but glad you guys are all ok You can always buy another S.

He spun my front end a little over 90 degrees. I ended up facing eastbound toward Capitol when I was making a left onto Hostetter to go westbound. My baby Bianca will most definitely be totaled. I'm a little banged up and pretty sore but I walked away...angry, but I walked away. Had I not gotten on the brakes he would have hit my door and I wouldn't be typing this. I would have been eating a burger through a straw for the next couple weeks instead. It really sucks that my first sighting was just after my car was deaded.

I took some pics but I just got home from the hospital and really want to go to sleep. Ill post them tomorrow from the shop.

I can't believe she is gone.

Oh man, sorry to hear that. Glad you are okay; that's the most important thing. You can always get a new S, but you can't get a new you! I certainly understand how you feel though. I totaled my first S almost 2 months to the day I got it! Top down, jams going, big ballin' because I'm a pimp (you all know that feeling), then wham the pick up truck in front of me stopped suddenly. I hit the break in time but my foot slipped off and I rear ended him on Winton Ave. in Hayward. I popped the air bag and that my friend was a wrap.

Hang in there bro. Heal up and start making plans on buying the sequel!

James, sorry to hear about your loss.

12:52 Yellow AP2 at the intersection of Page Mill and Foothill. He was going southbound on Foothill. I was going west on Page Mill sitting next to my friend in his new white M3. DrisanaRM was in the passenger seat laughing at the two yellow AP2s.
