La Canada is under threat. How will Lynn Park move 20 plus cars?

Hopes and prayers for those and their families affected by the firestorm! Unfortunately, in losing everything they are only through half of the hell at this point... insurance is the other half. Those leaches are nothing but trouble. Insurance is the biggest scam perpetrated on the public. It should be a nonprofit industry and not pray on people's misfortune. Ask me how I know!

I exchanged emails with Drew Serb and asked him if he had heard from Lynn Park. He replied that the fire got close, but changed directions away from Lynn's house and that all was well at that time. A blessing so far.

A couple of years, a real csx owner asked Jay Leno to store store his car due to closeby fires. He did a show with it.

I hope Jay's place is ok. So much history in his garage.

Thinking of your guys. We in Oz know what bushfires can be like with our own dangers every summer but this is exceptionally bad.

Stay safe

God I hope he stays safe. Aside from the cars his whole place is a shrine for Shelby Cobra with tons of irreplaceable memorabilia

I've witnessed some real devastation from hurricanes in my lifetime, but this destruction just boggles the mind. I really feel for the people losing their homes and possessions to the fires, while the insurance company execs are all in a huddle to figure how they can protect their precious profits and avoid paying out desperately-needed claims.

Some of these insurance companies will not have enough reserves to pay out their claims. They will have re-insurance which is insurance insurance companies buy. Warren Buffet's Berkshire Hathaway Reinsurance is one of the largest.

Many companies anticipated the loss risk and stopped selling in CA... The number I saw today was a snapshot in time early this morning but at $20B+. It'll only get bigger...
