sprite Report post Posted July 15, 2008 RIP. At those speeds you have no chance of survival. Possibly went airborne and flipped, or just lost control and went off road. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Vroom Report post Posted July 15, 2008 Definitely a vmax run gone bad. RIP The CF tub held up well, but the SLR must have caught air and flipped end to end. The debris pattern looks similar to an airplane crash! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The debris pattern looks similar to an airplane crash! I don't think the SLR would flip over solely because of speed, it is a better car than that. Maybe he encountered some kind of bump in the road and that made it flip at high speed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Placid Report post Posted July 15, 2008 Oh that's horrible! BTW, where is the police/investigators? In so many crash scenes from the middle east you see people strolling around the accident scene touching stuff and moving them around, but rarely any police etc Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sftobr Report post Posted July 15, 2008 Obviously the car was more than he could handle. Very sad to see a young person die with so much to live for.Can't imagine what his parents are going through. These photos are very disturbing and make me quite sad. Reminds me when I was 19 and saw one of my closest friends get decapitated from a motorcycle accident.

Redlambo Report post Posted July 15, 2008 QUOTE(RyanRo24 @ Jul 15 2008, 03:17 PM) Drive like a dumbass and shit happens. You get what you deserve IMO. No one deserves to die... Poor comment IMO. You do not know what happened, could have been a tire failure. If that was the case was he a dumbass? Or does shit just happen? Yes there is big risk traveling at those speeds. Did he accept those risks fully knowing the consequences more than likely not. But did he deserve to die IMO No especially if it was mechanical in nature. I'm not condoning risky behavior, but do feel sympathy for the loss of life may he RIP. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Vroom Report post Posted July 15, 2008 these photos were taken hours after the accident, i doubt they will keep a police officer to secure what was left from the car! Placid was referring to the way a car crash of this magnitude would investigated in the west. Over here, the site would be secured with caution tape, and professional crash investigators called in to determine speeds, cause of crash, etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GR8-1 Report post Posted July 15, 2008 Drive like a dumbass and shit happens. You get what you deserve IMO. Don't try to sound tough and be a dick. If you think you deserve to die for driving a car fast you shouldnt be anywhere near an exotic car website or even claiming to be an enthusiast. The accident was in the early morning so I doubt he was weaving inbetween other cars so he wasnt putting anyone else in danger. Besides, at the speeds it looks like he was traveling I don't think anyone would even try that. He was just doing what that car does best, and unfortunatly something went wrong. I don't think he deserved to die, no. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
