    Sorry to see a 348/red by the 'split' (St. Laurent/417) with the rear end pretty messed up. Looks like the back end 'walked' and dinged the guard rail with the heavy rain we recieved today.... or someone cut his lane! Fire-trucks, emergency vehicles all around... My condolenses to the owner.
    best,
    Sandy

    Very sorry and hope he's ok.

    Yeah, his car has the 360 wheels. :eek::eek:

    And he DOES live there too. :eek::eek:

    But I dont think that is Dan's car. :D:D

    Here is a pic of Dan's car. He has chrome 360 wheels and he doesnt have the splitter on the front lower spoiler. :D:D

    Or the shields on the fenders and his car is painted red behind the front grill. :D:D

    So it may not be his car, unless he has done ALL that work to it since it has been back on the road. :eek::eek:

    AND...

    Dans car does not have side reflectors - this car is a US spec car and does. So the good news is it's not his car!!! The bad news is that there is another brother out there that is probably not feeling good at the moment.

    thats just horrible - what was to be a nice adventure out on a distant run turns into this ... hopefully everyone is safe and sound ... again, cars can be fixed ... and it doesnt look like to much damage ...and the cockpit looks intact, so hopefully, no issues for the driver and passenger.

    Just wanted to clear up that it isn't Philippe's car...

    I did receive a reply from the owner and it is who I thought it was... he said he and his wife are a little sore from the impact but that they are fine... the car however, doesn't look too good.

    Hi Guys thanks for everbody having such big concerns. I'm pretty sure my car is a write off because the frame is twisted bad, the pictures do not show the real damage. Let's just say I'm still in shock. I never drive in the rain but cleary had no choice, having come back from the Montreal Dream Ride. At least both my wife and I are fine, just very sore. It's crazy how I was explaining to my wife about car that hydroplaning, then within 4 minutes I lost control.
