Wow !
You certainly totalled it !
At least that won't be repaired and some unsuspecting soul gets to pay good money for a shoddy rebuild.
I hope you get over the inevitable night time mental reruns quickly. Jeez !!!
Weirdly I've had none of that as I think the initial impact with the central reservation knocked me unconcious......looked from the motorway bridge near where I hit today and there is about 100ft of new barrier and the stump of a lamp post!You certainly totalled it !

Nigel,
Damned shame to see that sad outcome, when you had clearly put so much effort into what was
undoubtedly a pride and joy Z06 !
Doubt whether it would have had much of a bearing but, as part of the education process
for other Z06 owners, do you remember what setting you had selected on the traction control
before she aquaplaned ?
Good to see loads of tread on the front tyres, and here's wishing you a satisfactory outcome
from your discussions with your insurers.
Best Regards
Chas

Traction Control was fully on, as you say the front tyres were only replaced at Xmas so had less than 1,000 miles on them and only about 3,000 on the rears.
