YEAH! Insurance is going to cover me.

[Ulysses]

Interestingly enough, they are going to cover me although they have reservations in doing so. The adjuster basically called me a liar without saying so and stated that it seems like I was racing.

I calmly explained to her that the Viper is a 450 HP monster and cannot be driven like a Honda. One must learn how to drive it smoothly and therefore the driving school.

She then read an excerpt from the class manual that I faxed her. "Learn how to exploit the full potential of your car." She said "sounds like racing to me."

I then said "Yes, I want to exploit the full potential of my brakes when I have to stop quickly. I want to exploit the full handling ability of my car when I have to swerve out of the way of an accident or a deer without locking up the brakes or hitting something."

She then said, "We are sending you a check."

Now all that's left is the negotiating over what they said they are not going to cover.

That should be fun.

You may not have to negotiate anything. I dont know the details but you can get a new 2001 for your old wreck. All they want is your wreck and the insurance check in exchange for a new 2001, anyone tried it???? http://www.vipercarparts.com/newviper.htm
