Sad, but true. I was driving down Charleston Rd near the Googleplex when a Chevy Silverado merged into my lane without seeing me. He damaged the left side of #483, and pushed her into a parked car, which damaged the right side also.

The happy ending is that #483 will be totally repaired! The CF body panels and front bumper took all the damage. Chilton quoted nearly $17,000 for repairs, but she's coming back like new in 3 weeks.

Here she is with #117 before the accident.

If anyone has advice on what to expect post-repair, I'm all ears!
