6speed member "DJ's Z" in bad car accident last night
Glad your ok Dennis. I got a call from Zac after Craig had let him know what happened. You will be back again and I bet your next ride will be even sicker!
I think you need to get a 996 GT2 next and come put the hurt down on everyone!

Glad to see you post Dennis.
I am going to start some early window shopping for the insurance money: For Sale/Trade APS TT Z06
That car was owned by a guy names Tony from New Jersey so you know it is a true Corvette through and through.

Now if you get compensated properly for your pain and suffering, this is what I recommend:
2002 Protomotive Built 996 GT2 6,000 miles 700+HP

Damn, Dennis... You are one VERY lucky man! Glad you're able to post and let us know you're alright...

Thanks for all the warm words guys...I'm doing okay, sleeping/resting most of the day. Pretty damn sore. Head got the worst of it with lacerating an anterial lateral artery (I think thats what the Doc said) that the EMT's could not get to stop bleeding. They said I had a pretty good squirter goin'.
From what I understand from the police officer on scene that showed up at the hospital was she suffered a seizure, side swiped another car, came across the interstection at approx 50-60mph and hit me head on. I am one lucky SOB for sure. As soon as I saw her hit the median and start heading straight toward me I knew I was in for one hell of a ride.
Guess I cannot say enough about how well the Z06 did it's job in protecting me from that head on collision. It could have been a life changing accident for me and my family for sure.
I'll give all the local guys a call when my head stops pounding. Thanks again for all the well wishes and phone calls from all my amigos. I'll be back, you can guarantee it. Here's a few pics...
