17dis Supra Crash

[AHH31]

Was just sittin on the net ere at mooba and i heard this external gate screamin up the road.. then i heard a screach, then more wastegate.. then a SMASH! then nothing so i grabbed the phone, keys and headed down stairs, and 200m from my place i spotted 17DIS supra.. anyway.. look at the pic

Supposidly he booted it, the ass went out, he clipped the high gutter which sent him flyin into a parked car... no breaks...

thankfully nobody was hurt, even more of a reason why we need a motorsport complex on the coast.. to get people to stop trying to drift on suburban streets ffs

sh*t he must have been carrying a bit of speed....this will do wonders for the image of imports and the general car scene on the coast. Cant wait to see it on the news tomorrow, I think I can already guess the story!

yeah, great... guess i should de-register the 31 and lock it in the garage for the next 6 months... i'd already had a chat with the local laws of maroochy tonite, and basically.. there nuckling down after Jd and the rest died when they hit the tree.. the pressures on.. and young people in performance cars are now a big target

as quoted from a female officer tonite "You drive a skyline, that is a hoon car, the only reason you drive it is because it is a hoon car, even if you dont want to admit it, even if you drive it around normally, you drive around in packs and encourage others to hoon"

woo.... joys

This was one of the guys of the www.sunshinecoastcruising.com forum....his car was, from what ive read on there pushing out around 400hp with a big single....no real details of the engine that I could find without looking properly. The police have no idea what "hooning" even is they just classify it as driving in anything modified now, its rediculous but thats how it is and this type of thing only reinforces the distorted image they already have of the modified car scene.

I bet it was one of his clown mates driving at the time

[SilverECR33]

ouch. nice one mate ,

[shanef]

next time, grab ya video camera

it was claimed to have had over 500rwhp, but when we saw i run the other weekend it wasnt impressive at all and ceratinly not performing to its claimed 500hp although it did have a bucket load of money spent on it, he used to own a blue r33 and another r33 before that and was active on this forum at one stage. Its a shame cause it was a nice car but you do stupid things in public areas stupid consequences will eventually occur

[Keegs]

anyone got specs on his car?? I wonder what hes going to do with the car...dunno who might want his engine...hmmmm..

god is she a dyke. typical uneducated cop off the street. I dont think thats a fair statement to say to a community that enjoys automotive recreation. my 2c.

this makes me incredibly sad, really

a gun doesn't make someone a murderer, the person who uses it incorrectly is the murderer

stupid f**kwit police, and stupid f**kwits in imports

[AHH31]

Yeah, well, if i drive around in my car most times under the speed limit, and they classify me as a hoon, then what do they classify the dickwit business men in their m3's or bmw's who do 160 on the highway?

and fair enough young people who drive performance cars sometimes crash, like the accident up ere with JD and the rest of em in the statesman which hit the tree and killed 3 of em, now there all full on about hoons etc, but they need to even it out a bit and stop pushing the blame onto performance car/import drivers because geez ive watched the news and seen the reports on familys dying while towing there caravan etc but they dont target them, im sure mr business man isnt paranoid about the police when he goes to his car of a evening.... why should I have to feel paranoid because i drive a nice car?

this topic sort of shifted abit. I think the point is the guy knew how fast the car was, hes been driving high performance cars for awhile now & he should of known better than to drive so crazy on a suburban public street. Theres nothing worse than having your car damaged by another bad driver.

[frankxinyu]

jesus christ......

such a pitty. sad to see a nice car gone

[aphid]

unlucky buddy,

[Lunatikk]

unlucky buddy,

That's not UNLUCKY, that's f#k'n STUPIDITY!!!

The sooner we as a collective realise & act upon the fact that stupid acts by an absolute minority of Import owners/drivers are the reason we all get un-fairly targeted for the cars that we choose to drive the sooner we may be able to have that attitude reversed.

Comments like "Unlucky buddy" & the mentality that goes with it do NOT help our cause........

But, if we are all REALLY honest, its pretty true. I know lots of people who go down the coast, they dont race, yet they are always in the pack to watch the races... As the saying goes, you dont buy a fast car to not go fast.

I’m sceptical at 500rwhp. But that’s not the point.. Rodgers mates drive this Supra like fools, if in fact it was one of his mates driving; this crash does not surprise me to be honest.

Shame though, was a nice car, and sounded sexy as.

I believe tonight on the New’s they did yet ANOTHER Hoon story, using this Supra? Or perhaps it’s on tomorrow.
