that kinda made me sad...

*DJPimpFlex* · 12-11-2006, 12:09 AM

that was fuckin epic....

WILDACEX187 · 12-11-2006, 12:29 AM

damn thats alot of money wasted. wonder if they salvage anything or throw it all away

Ricks15 · 12-11-2006, 12:35 AM

Damn that sucks but its also cool

*tacotacotaco* · 12-11-2006, 10:20 AM

On the first side to side hit where the body panels just flew off it reminds me of a guy takin a dump and the outhouse flying away and sitting in the open with your pants down.

S13 Charlie · 12-11-2006, 10:45 AM

I want to say that that race should've been stopped, I mean a little rain is one thing, but the conditions there were dangerous! Kinda funny that the first two cars were both Saleens. Teammate taking out teammate. Did anyone else notice how that poor guy who got his legs taken out slid like 7-8 feet to where the other guy was hopping over the wall? The wet conditions probably saved him from more serious injury.

Total carnage though, that vid really shows you how brittle carbon fiber is. It just shatters like crackers.

Taniguchi_Is_#1 · 12-11-2006, 03:13 PM

i read the comments, and it was a sudden mid race downpour, apparently. massive carnage indeed.

swwifty · 12-11-2006, 03:19 PM

lol, that was just silliness.

that guy was very lucky indeed to not have been injured more!

someone was looking out for him!

twofourzerosx · 12-11-2006, 03:34 PM

who the hell let that race go in the first place? bad officials IMO

wootwoot · 12-11-2006, 04:09 PM

All I can really say is, fucking crazy. Glad to hear that no one was seriously injured.

HyperTek · 12-11-2006, 05:19 PM

was this recent?

glad its not as bad as that jgtc 95 video

**ThatGuy** · 12-11-2006, 06:05 PM

I'm speechless. Most people couldn't drive on the freeway in those conditions let alone RACE!

Ricks15 · 12-11-2006, 07:08 PM

HyperTek do you have the link to that JGTC video? post it up

azndummie · 12-12-2006, 02:39 AM

*downshift_sideways* · 12-12-2006, 11:52 AM

Wow Robby didnt link him to his Video of the day Thread!!

w00t! I would give you posi, but I neg'd you earlier in that face behind the helmet thread. hahaha

LB.Motoring · 12-12-2006, 12:01 PM

haha you cootch. Im gonna get you for that

I would sleep on your back from now on.

HyperTek · 12-12-2006, 11:29 PM

heres the jgtc one http://youtube.com/watch?v=UfGZ0hwuwxU

supposibly the pace car popped out of no where and some guys had to slow down really fast and one of em obiously couldnt..
you gotta consider how fast track side marshells react, its not like they are gonna be there the second it happens, so he was sitting in that burning car for a while.

but he survived, jus some serious burns.

Ricks15 · 12-12-2006, 11:45 PM

Damn thats some crazy shit, posi rep 4 you.

How the heck did Schumacher's car stay on 3 wheels like nothing happened?

Carlos

Vlasic · 12-13-2006, 01:02 AM

holy shit! that was crazy, so much damage...so sad...

*kognition* · 12-13-2006, 11:39 AM

Thats beyond insane! Holy hell. I don't see how that guy survived that long without singing his lungs. If he didn't have at least a 3 layer nomex suit, he would surely be a dead man.

Ichi-Go · 12-13-2006, 11:58 AM

His arm was parylized and a bunch of other stuff like 3rd degree burns on half his body. My car caught on fire at an SCCA event and they had a the firetruck next to my car in like 15 seconds, it was there before I knew my car was on fire. I was super impressed. That wasnt even a big event like some multi million dollar JGTC event.

silvia_s14 · 12-13-2006, 12:29 PM

sorry wrong post

iAMprojekt · 12-14-2006, 09:34 AM

wow... sucks for the guy that owned both those cars
