Ouch....sorry about your sweet ride. VDC is there for a reason. The rear does get a little bit squirly with VDC off. Hopefully she will be back in commission in no time. What part of texas?

I can't stress how important it is to get driving lessons on these cars. So many people disrespect the power of sports cars in general. I am glad no one was hurt. Spending the money on lessons is a good investment, also lets you know your limits with your car.

This is why I'm hesitant to turn it off on public streets.

So lets hear the full story. Looks like it's dry as a bone outside in those pics. I find my car pretty easy to keep in a straight line when it's dry.

Sorry about the damage to your Z. Just be glad you didn't get hurt and that the car isn't damaged any worse than it is.
Like others have said no reason to turn the VDC off on the street. Save that for a track/autocross where you have some margin for error. Also as Fusz said a good performance driving course is a great way to learn how to handle a high performance car. It also makes driving one more fun too.

VDC never goes off. It's called an accident for a reason though. You'll learn. Glad to see you are okay, though.
