What the fark?

First I have to demand that the Police actually show up and now they want to "wash their hands" of it? I would go to the station and lodge an official complaint, short of that get a letter from a lawyer and start preparing to take AKTUNG to the cleaners.

OMFG! I have not been on these forums for a few weeks and I return to this very bad news. Dave it is so sad to see your labour of love ruined!

Once again certain factions of the police force have shown contempt for the young public.

My opinion is, If you have witnesses that were not in your car, I would collect statements from each of them and gather all your photographic evidence. Including a rough diagram of the road and each cars position, then take your theory and a complaint to the ombudsman. With the evidence of how your car was damaged it should prove without a doubt that your are not at fault and the police are negligently brushing you off. Thats what I think anyway.

If AKTUNG knows he is in the wrong he is the lowest person I know of.

Good luck Dave!

I'm happy to go to the scene and take some pics giving an idea of where your car came to rest in relation to where the set of lights are etc. (giving an indication as to the amount of momentum he had). Didn't see the impact itself but was there on the night and live close by so this is no hassle for me. Let me know. In retrospect, we probably should have done so on the night.

    • I thought I'd heard rumor of someone that was developing a 6 speed kit to convert the 5 speed box. But maybe I was thinking of the PPG 6 speed sequential? That's about half the price of a car...  
    • I've searched fairly extensively among Japanese websites but found nothing really like those skirts in your photo. The closest I got was Origin Labo side skirts however they look more 'complete' in that they have a finishing piece or tab at the rear of the skirt so it blends into the bodywork, unlike the one in your pic. For that reason I'd say the skirts in your pic could be adapted from another car and they didn't include that tab piece, or those skirts aren't copied from an existing skirt but an original design. Sorry I can't help out in regard to ID'ing/sourcing them
    • Wonder if JB Weld sponsored the event lol
    • There's a big difference between a car built with millions of dollars in R&D, and someone like yourself taking a normal sporty road car, and making it 5 times more powerful. At the same time, get a modern sports car, and you can turn them up towards the 1000hp mark a lot easier too. Also, give that Lambo another 20 odd runs, and chances are it too may break something.
    • There isn’t really a cheap upgrade here. If someone made a decent, bolt in 6 speed that holds some grunt, it would do very well. The 5 speeds suck. You can put a - OSG 5 speed gear set into it. Ratios are tall so it zaps the “zing” out of it. Had one, busted it. - PPG 5 speed gear set synchro or dog’s. Ratios are even taller. - An overpriced Getrag. Nice to drive, expensive to source now. - A sequential of some sort. Expensive, very expensive. How many times do you pop a 5 speed before you throw the toys out of the cot?
