That's so cool! It looks like the "oh crap" frame was #8 when he began to push the turn hard, then about #13 he resigned to the "how do I survive" strategy as he straightened back up again. Trust me, he is weighing the Vette front end against taking his chances in the woods and trees and slippery pine needles on the left. Curiously the guy in the Vette had is arm resting on the door frame the whole time he careened off the road as if he was still planning on making it to Aunt Martha's for dinner.

Don't know if that rider will ever consider waving again - bad memories.

The JOURNEY is the reward!

Re: Smile for the camera Reply #3 - 10/30/12 at 17:06:00 I think IM seeing the vette front end dive from braking,, not sure, Theres a forum out there where the vette driver gives his take on it.. His vette is Busted UP,, L/F suspension is busted.

Minding your own business driving along enjoying the day.....and some one handed waving biker guy slams into your pride and joy.

It looks like the 'Vette tried a hard right to avoid a head on but still he probably ended up in a tree or a ditch. If anyone can find the POV from the 'Vette I'd like to read it. --Steve
