and we all wonder why these cars are worth $35,000. The guys who own them, have no idea how to drive them, they just have the $$ to buy them, and then crash them... poor car.

how'd he crash it?? racing?? drifting?? i know he just didnt accidently loose control, he must've been trying to get crazy w/ it.

wow, that makes me extremely angry he did that to that car.. i cant stop thinking of what i would give for one of those cars, and to see it dead like that is terrible.

well since he just got it tuned the night b4, and taking it for a test drive, w/ 700HP, he probably was getting crazy w/ it, and he was probably getting into it, and when he hit that bump and shifted, and landed back on the ground, the tires were spinning b4 they hit the ground and he lost control. That's what it sounds like to me.

Not trying "to shift at the wrong time". He knew what he was doing, but he didnt realize his car was a few inches off the ground at the time, and floored, and lost control.

Since he's ok I suppose it won't hurt to add the obligatory, "That will buff right out!"

thats why you only do highspeed passes on empty highways where you can only hit cement barriers or the woods, not houses and fences and people. ******* moron, serves him right. we can only hope he gets some massive tickets from this.
