Breaking necks and causing car wrecks

So my car team Kaizen International and I had a feature photo shoot with a local car forum on Sunday 1/6/13 . This was eventful to say the least.

After riding around with the camera crew to scout some spots we were getting dropped off and the crew's vehicle got rear ended. Soon as the front passenger got out we got hit. We're all OK though in both vehicles.

I'm convinced the driver who hit us was distracted by the cars and not quite paying attention to the road.




Team members were directing traffic until the cops arrived.


and sneak preview of one of the shots with the vert.

Absolutely gorgeous.

Great photography. Beautiful car.

Thanks Rochester. CF trim on the front lip, grill and side skirts actually. There are many positives and negatives with going with the vert (heavy and not as agile as you listed). For me the positives outweigh the negatives.
