Angry GRRR!!!!

This is the kinda thing that gives street racing a bad name! Rich retards racing cas they can't control under normal driving! My major fault with the photo is where it says the Lambo hit a Volvo head on. WTF!?!? To do that they'd either have to be racing on a 2 lane (utterly moronic) or racing to such an extreme that they were racing through traffic, also idiotic and not even similiar to what most street racers do.

Don't worry about the members of this site, none of em are stupid enough to dO that shit!

ohmigod, that is not cool at all.

leave it to the rich pricks to think they can drive on the opposite side of the road in a high traffic area in order to race.

i do my racing in a 'responsible' matter, on an abandoned highway late at night
much safer...and i don't go 200 mph either

PS: looks like the Vette won. hehehehe.

Default at least it was american

actually, at my local dragstrip, there was a viper and a lamborghini going at it a few weeks ago. the lambo got the jump (the diablo's are all-wheel drive) but the viper ran him down by the end of the track.

Question Man. . .

To think that that guy payed over 230k for a lamborghini to be smoked by a 1990 corvette before death. I feel sorry for the guy in the volvo. He probably didn't know what hit him.

Here's what the volvo looks like.

Next thing you know Gov Pataki is going to ban cars with more than 4 Cylinders...

You know, all that power can be distracting...

Default CAUTION!! VERY GRAPHIC!!

You think that is bad! Check this out. It's what happens when a Ferrari meets a guardrail.

Be Careful, it's VERY GRAPHIC ***I'm not joking!***

"VERY GRAPHIC"

Translation

You get to see how they got the pretty red color of the Ferrari in the first place.

Was that a liver on the pavement I saw?

As much as I don't like to think about it, we should all remember those Ferrari pictures every time you think of doing something even a little wild in your cars. I race people and speed a lot, but I know when to take it easy also.

I agree whole-heartedly. I drove a tow truck for about 9 months. Some of the accidents that I saw will make you think twice about driving like an a$$hole!!

Lately with the boy racers down here, there has been a major problem with late night racing. One night a cop was chasing a car on the Hutt Road at 100mph, both were overtaken by a couple of boy racers doing 150mph approx ( I'm converting from kph which was 160 and 200). The cop just said to the local rag that he didn't bother taking up the chase as it was TOO dangerous and he knows what can happen at those speeds.
Volvos and Mercs have a reputation of being crash survivable, but it seems you can design out stupidity. Just ask Di and Dodi.
The Farrari is a shocker.

This'll probably elicit a flame but IMHO Volvo drivers drive like they're invincible for the most part... This excludes the guy who got bagged by the Lamborghini, he had no clue what was about to happen, but just this morning I had a guy in an older Volvo sedan cut a corner too short an at about 40mph almost took the front of my Neon off.

I saw more pics of that accident on the news last night. The front of the Lambroghini stops @ the steering wheel. The front of the Volvo was extremely FUBAR'd also. They said that the Lambroghini driver had lost his license 3 times, plus numerous other offences. That was one nasty accident!

i'll bet you ten dollars drugs or alchol was involved!! no one sober can do quite that much to themselves (well....) man i thought ferraris would be a bit safer than that but i guess those guy found that out the hard way!!

now the lamb was just plain stupidity....if you have that much car on the street you should be able to control it before you try and law the smack down on a shivvy!! i've never had a race get above 100...cause i nuke imports most of the time and all you gotta do is outrun the limiter chip in their computers (112)

but anyway...man now everytime i'm doing 75 in a 70 zone i'll be all paranoid and tense!!! theres a difference between being dead and looking like you were chewed up by a bear and SH*T over a cliff!!!

i am going to inflict paranoia on all my friends now!!! i've never seen anyone die that badly on a raceway.... (actually i've only seen one death....the guy had a heart attack and then kissed the wall, but he was dead before he hit the wall)

man....thats some bad juice

If I remember correctly the ferrari hit the guy on the road then hit the guard rail. He hit the guy going so fast the car just went to pieces and then crashed into the guard rail. Sick stuff. I remember pictures like that when ever I see idiots flying through traffic. Eventually it will catch up to them. Hopefully they leave through it.
