Unbelievable !!!!

Trooper Guy Gill of the WSP says witnesses reported seeing the car pass at more than 100 mph before the crash.

Gill says fortunately the driver of the car did not suffer life-threatening injuries and he was able to speak with troopers on the scene.

Jackass. I bet his parents will buy him another sports car when he gets his license back.

Painted handles, pillars and terrible overspray leads me to believe that this Z was on the verge of being totaled long ago.

Troopers believe speed may be to blame? It's crazy that he doesn't have any life-threatening injuries.

"Bad luck for this Z driver" you say!?

Luck had nothing to do with this except that the kid survived the crash (which is good luck).

He should never had a Z to begin with. But then parents don't give such thought to the wild not brain thinking kids today.

LACEY, Wash. - Troopers believe speed may be to blame when a 20 year-old man from Oregon slammed his car into a tree Sunday morning near Lacey.

Speed to blame? I love it, how about the jackass that had his foot on the petal??? He's not to blame.. Next thing you know there will be a Class Action suit for Gas petals...

Looks like he's somehow managed to go airborne and hit roof square on the roof to tree, looking at where the damage is.

Another Zed damaged beyond repair,
