It took some time for the account to be activated, otherwise you would have had the requested pictures and added information sooner.

I do not consider myself a hard a$$ in anyway. I do not kick people when they are down and out. I personally find the lack of community that is visible in this thread to NOT be remotely positive to the Z community in anyway. This saddens me.

I sincerely hope this group will be so gracious when the next one of you wrecks your Z...somehow I think not.
well im only 18, so i know where he stands. but personally i have been on here long enough to know not to post something like this. because if you look at all the threads like this they all turn into flame parties.

yes it sucks they he wrecked his nismo, but it still may be due to not enough driving experience

Agreed. My bad and I do apologize.

It was a head-on with an SUV. As with any head-on, you need to add the speeds together to get a real idea of the impact speed. e.g two vehicles A & B. A is moving at 30MPH, B is moving at 50MPH. 30+50=80MPH impact. Speed differentials are bad for impacts. Again, that is only an example. Let me repeat...example.

I have zero information on how the police handled citations.

Just wanted to say thanks for posting the pics....it does prove it happened. I was beginning to wonder myself by the merit of OP original post.

From the pics it totally looks like he was driving too fast for the conditions.

I agree..being a paramedic for 15 years has made a quite a realist. It has also made me a believer that people will only tell you what they want you to know.

280zx, everything that everyone has said put aside, Do you truly believe that this young man was going only 20mph, looking at that damage?? He said that he remembered going into the round about and then his car was in parts..with that happening in a split second, how did he know the exact speed he was traveling?

280ZXT..I am not sure why you are shocked about how this thread has gone. A 19 year old wrecked a NISMO Z, one of 1500. I'd say at least 50% of the threads on this forum referring to wrecked Z's are from kids under 20 years old. Every single thread turns into a flame fest, unless it really wasn't the member's fault (provided they can prove that). Otherwise, its just opening a can of worms starting a thread like this.

well we saw the pics of the 3rd dead nismo...most of us have said our peace(i pitched in on the beating on the 2nd page) so i want no association with the OP or 280zx....

I just find that it may be getting a little out of control....sorry if you dont feel the same KingBaby...maybe im out of line here...in that case i will just let this go...

Again i apologize...Later.

Wow...did I log into Ferarrichat by accident? And I only thought those guys were over compensating for lack of...

I promise, Alex and I are two very different people. I do know him and like the guy. I would think you could tell the difference in posts, but then again, some of you probably still wonder if the moon landing really happened, or was it all on a Hollywood stage.

I normally hang out on the Z forums that deal with the older Z's, and appreciate the heritage. For those of you that are clueless, 280ZXT is an actual Z produced by Nissan 1981-1983 and badged as Datsun. I have heard from others that this is NOT a friendly forum, thus avoided it until now. FYI...still kicking around adding a 350Z or G37 to the stable. Actually working on a barn find of a 1st gen for a track car.

Am I clown? Folks that know me, know I have a wicked sense of humor. But I do not think that totaling a Z, or any other marque, should be the source of amusement for people.


As I have mentioned before, I was NOT at the scene of the accident when it occured, therefore I will NOT comment on what may or may not have happened as that would be irresponsible and misleading. Was Alex going 15 or 500MPH? I cannot say. I was not there. Nor were any of you. Period. If you weren't there, your opinions are strictly that...opinions and we all know that those are like a-holes....we all have them.

Frankly, time to get off the guys back. Me? I could care less what you minions think of me.

Please refer to post #122.

I do not know. If I had to guess, and this is strictly a guess, I would say the Z received the citation since it ended up in the oncoming lane. Again, strictly a guess and no facts to back it up.

Do you really feel this is the correct way to respond? Why should "Every single thread turns into a flame fest, unless it really wasn't the member's fault (provided they can prove that)." be the norm? That just doesn't seem right in my book. The guy was looking for input on whether others had experienced a similiar problem, instead it turned in a public flogging. Sorry, I just don't think that should be considered "normal".

True, but this is the internet not your local car club, even they might have some harsh words.
