R.I.P
Well, I killed it. Poor SS did a pretty good job of protecting me though. I made an overly aggressive lane change to get out of being boxed in by 3 18 wheelers for several miles, in the rain. The car got loose, tapped the front of one of the trucks then shot me off the freeway and into a bridge pillar. Side curtain airbags worked pretty well, no injuries or major damage to anyone/thing except my car. Got another one already, this one has a couple of mods already.
  Only photo of the new one so far.  Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You are so lucky that you didn’t get seriously hurt or killed! Be careful out there and glad you got a replacement for your wrecked Camaro!

Very brave going back to black. I decided to change from black, to much work.
Congrats on getting another SS!

Thanks for the well wishes.
The new one has Stainless Works long tubes and axle backs, feels like a shorter throw shifter maybe a ZL1, the throttle feels a lot better than my last one so I will assume that was addressed in a tune. And it has a Rotofab cold air intake and clear smoked GM tail lights.

Yeah, I don't think I'll be doing that again. I'm 51, and its been many, many years since I got a car out of shape at freeway speeds. We'll call it good and drive normal from now on.

Prompted by the dick move of the truck that was purposely blocking me in, but yes, 100% my fault.

Why does the offset look so weird on the rear wheels of the new one?

Poor pic quality, low light, shadow from the flash. Looks pretty normal in person.
