Thats really bad.

If people who see that, and its doesn't change them, and they continue to race and do those sort of speeds on everyday roads, no idea what ever will get through to them.

We ain't invincible, more reckless you drive, the day will come when something like that can easily happen to anyone of us. Maybe not directly becasuse of you, but so much can happen, and at those kind of speeds, if something goes wrong, it will only take a split second and it will be all over!

Re: The Danger's

You wonder...those look like dummies.... like limp dummies, and even the organs on the ground look like something fake!!!
Sad thing, it's probably real.

This isn't supposed to discourage anyone from enjoying our cars, but here's a link to a site that might make you reconsider those crazy speeds. Anyway the link is to a site of a ferrari that has crashed at 280 km per hour and it's very graphic!!! 280km~180+mph. http://www.amplus.com.br/crashed/ferrari/ferrari1.htm

I think they clipped the little truck that is in those pictures.

I remember too about a year ago some guy (with is wife in the car no less) got killed in NY in a new diablo (est price $300k) racing some guy in an older corvette. He killed the guy that he hit head on which was in a volvo if I remember right.

Links to it:

Picture at top I think is of another corvette, NOT from the race

Picture of the volvo that was hit by Diablo and picture of vette off the road.

yuk! When you said graphic, I was thinking of horribly smashed up cars Looks like the passenger got it the worst and was completely tore up.. literally.

 

[capt'n'caveman]

the first guy didn't look too bad...the second guy looks like a photocho work....the pile of instestine or whatever it was below the de-cap arm looks way fake, plus some other aspect of those injuries.......pretty sad if the second one is true

That's funny how some of you think it's fake, yes it LOOKS fake, but that's our reaction to something so horrible, it's strange to see the insides of people like we kinda reject the fact that a body is so twisted.

After working for a high end radio shop and seeing the insides of older Ferrari's I think they are junk. There's a tube frame in there, but more like bicycle tubes. They leave washers, bits of leather, wire, etc in the body panels. A Ferrari is built to go fast, but that's it. On 10/7 I was involved in a head on crash in my WRX Wagon, at around 45-50MPH (was not able to hit brakes), totaled my car and the other car - I walked away with big bruises from my seat belt (front of WRX was pushed back at least a foot, of course air bags went off), if I had been in a Ferrari I probably would have been dead or maimed.

Bottom line.....stupid is as stupid dies!

That one guy wrapped around the siderail reminds me of this japanese movie i saw about spirals. Adam - do you remember the name of that movie?
it ended up the guy climbed in the dryer because it spiralled and it ened up spiraling him. Kinda looked like this: @

It is sad but remember ferraris are lightweight and powerfull so it shouldn't suprize you that it exploded on impact.
