What I really enjoy is the way the wreck is presented on the other board, you know, how sad it is that the f**knut was doing 130 and lost it.

Yikes...regardless of whether being wreckless about driving and that stupid in general...

Look at the car - I'm amazed at how well the cabin looks. Very reassuring that it's a pretty well engineered to be safe.

Yeah... blaming a lack of downforce for the crash. Right. Ok. Who told him to drive 130 mph??? When are people going to take responsibility for their own stupidity and stop externally justifying... my god...

The good news, the cars roof held up pretty well after the role. I feel for the guy, but come on 130 MPH is kind of nuts, at night, probably on a cold road. A candidate for the darwin award?

It sucks that he crashed, but at least he's ok.

With the accident aside, that was one funny @ss thread though.

Jeez that made me cringe. Sure didn't look pleasant.

That doesn't look like 130 MPH worth of damage. I see worse at 45 MPH.

130mph, corners, cold, sandy, in the dark? He doesn't have an excuse to stand on!

Default A little moderation is a good thing

Man, I just read that entire posting on that RISR crash, and all I can say is..Thank god that we have moderators on this forum. Whew! And what is it about when the fast and furious get in front of a keyboard? I've never seen such egregious misspellings, typos, just plain bad writing, as I saw there. And these guys are "college educated". Wot colij did thy atend? That's how it was. Check it yourself, if you can stomach it. It's actually quite humorous, like children throwing mudpies.
But the 350Z didn't look too bad for 130. Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside, knowing that the thing is so well built. And I'm glad I don't have those 17" rims, because they didn't fare so well.
