I believe he had a blown tire while approaching ~200 MPH.

that makes me so sad
that z was so nice, almost at the highway speed record (207.xx), he was at 200 mph when he heard a pop and then slowed to 150 at which point flipped seven times.

I hardly call it rice, as it actually has the performance to back up the gaudy kit and graphics...

Rice Doesnt Mean its Slow. Rice Means It Looks Like A$$. With That LARG Front End Thats Rice. Its A Nice Z And Very Fast But It Is Still "Rice" because Of The Body Kit. IMO Atleast...

The front kit lowers the wind drag and have bigger opening for cooling. So I don't call it rice. If that's rice, then F1 car must be the biggest rice ever. (It's not)

Got to also keep in mind its a showcar, and the driver is the publisher of option magazine, so the car is/was a 200mph magazine billboard...


...I just hate it when people scream rice ignorantly...Of course my car wouldnt look like that, but you can't bash what you don't know.

I Wasnt Stating If it Was Or Wasnt. For That Car Then No It Isnt Rice. But If You Or Me On A Stock Z Had That Kit Then Yes It Is Rice. But For That Car It Has A Purpose...

This guy is right on top of this ^^. Show me the book on top speed runs, that says "car must look like a$$ to race on desert"

Vettes have been doing 200mph+ top speed runs for years without stickers, pastel color paint or giant wings.
