That's absolutely horrible. Just goes to show, any idiot can get behind the wheel of a powerful car. And when they do, heaven help us.....

Wonder if anyone got seriously hurt in the crowd?
Looks like he just got a bit sideways in the wet and couldn't get it back. I did that the first night I drove mine in the wet, at more speed than that. Luckily I caught it.

I wish I knew more to the story but to be honest I just stumbled across it on youtube after searching RX-7. Unlike you guys who obviously knew what was coming due to the title...I was just joyfully watching some exotics take off, patiently waiting for the "rx-7" in the foreign description, and literally had my jaw drop once I witnessed it have its turn.

Simply over corrected and didn't return the wheel from opposite lock it's happened to anyone who's practiced kicking the tail out unfortunately this dude picked a poor time to show off his driving skills which were clearly not well honed.

Hopefully most of them didnt know it was an RX7. It sure doesnt look like one. I might not have recognized it if I didnt know it was coming.

LOL^^

Reminds me when I was driving through Laguna Beach and pulled over to look at a Bugatti Veyron parked on the side of the road. A lady walking by asked me what type of Corvette that was ...I didn't know how to respond.

Thats not good ....

Just a thing make me laugh (and i'm sorry for people injured)




Look at the left of the street...

You see the Alfa with "POLIZIA" on?

Thats an error...here in Italy the black alfa with red graphic are "CARABINIERI"

POLIZIA is POLICE and the have this graphic

That's horrible, I hope nobody died or was injured but it looks like someone went flying. Wreck-less/showoff driving in public areas is idiotic...

The 7 is probably the only one present without traction control technology. Most of the others punched out of that intersection and did not slide.
