looks like the megan racing Z when was this?

njsho Mar 7, 2006 05:09 AM

why would you setup a course with a big tree and wall at the end of straight/middle of a corner.

christoc Mar 7, 2006 07:52 AM

Not exactly what I would call good Course design

Doh.

from what i've heard from people that were there, the 350z was driving great ALL day, and then they did a driver swap, this was the new driver's first run and didn't have enough rotation in the car for the turn, the front wheel locked after massive understeer when the driver entered too hot in 3rd gear, and with those massive front pistons... that's all she wrote-
There was even a minor riding shotgun during the incident.... both driver & passenger what i heard were ok afterward... the Z is a complete loss.

damn that sucks.

NerZ Mar 7, 2006 08:34 AM

man that sucks. one funny thing though in the video clip the people that are walking by when it crashes are walking casual and not freaked out. Maybe they have seen a lot of crashes.

maybe his test pipes cracked, blowing up his front tire from the massive heat.

chuquison Mar 7, 2006 09:43 AM

I was making a slant against all of the ultra-cheap megan racing parts.. But you got a point there..

plumpzz Mar 7, 2006 10:43 AM

they cut off abs? He had a huge plume of tire rubber smoke right before? Looked like his brakes locked.
