This really screwed me.

[puckish]

Was driving my sister home from Freo last night coming down South Street past Coats Hire towards Stock road.

A cop car had blocked the far left lane and had a fully laided double B road train in front of it. Moving into the right hand lane to go around I saw why it had happened.

The Road train had mounted the kerb and gone across the verge into a side street taking out a brand new 911. The roof of the car was 5 feet in the air and the a pillar was where the gear stick should have been.

I don't see how the prosche driver could have survived. Really sad as he had no chance.

I've seen a lot of major prangs but this one was unbelievably bad.

[MrGTST]

Ohhh nasty..... Its sad to see any cars crash let alone ones people don't walk away from

[puckish]

Yeah it was one of those that where smack bang in front of you, there was no avoiding seeing the thing. Scary thing was the front of the car was intact.

[bully]

hmm just heard of a couple of 16 year olds who took there dads sunday cruiser for a run and had a major near there i wonder if it was them?

[R31 Chick]

I know a guy who's Dad brought him a 200SX. Flying down the road on a wet day and sliding sideways into a tree he killed himself and 2 others and the surviving one has his legs amputated from the knees down. That was really sad.

I saw 2 bad crashes on Armadale rd yesterday (thu) morning on the way to work.... one involved some little red car like an old barina or soemthing. was fully masshed and the roof was cut off...i assume the firebrigade did this to get the person out.

Didnt look like they could have survived it! but i havent heard anything on the news so hopefully they did. Makes you slow down but!

[puckish]

911 was silver.

MrSnrub you STILL in Armadale ;-)

[R31 Chick]

Seen a mates car this morning sideways in some bushes. Seems his g/f was driving, booted it around a round'about it kicked LSD and 180 degree spun up the kirb and plowed into the buhes on the opposite direction they were originally travelling. Mmmm, not good, they are ok and they were lucky how well the car came out of it. Still has some big dents though. Smashed front bumper too.

witnessed my mate put his dads jag xk8 ~$200k car into a lightpole... outside applecross maccas, was only at about 30km/h, spun it round in the wet (traction control off ) and poled it. got out a bit shaken, but thats all. oh and damage was $60k worth somebody sent these pics into fastfours mag and it was featured in there... no idea who, it wasn't any of my mates.

Ouch, thats a nice mess. I would get photos but as he has already filled the car up with bog it is too late.

[bryanlee38]

Someone explain to me wat LSD mean?

[GTS-t VSPEC]

LSD = limited slip differential:D

[bryanlee38]

yeah ... can u elaberate on that. I have these 2 light funtion on my speedo on my r33.. I dunno wat they mean. one is a-lsd and slip (from memory) .... slip comes on when i hoon and lose traction, dunno wat a-lsd does or mean?

[GTS-t VSPEC]

Bryan, That means your car is like mine, it has a VSPEC diff. The Active-LSD will sense when your cornering and choose the split betweent the left and right wheels to help you corner, the SLIP senses when the wheels loose traction.

[bryanlee38]

oooooooohhhhhhhhhh so its just a feature. It just came with the car, wasnt something i was choosing. Besides sensing these 2 features, can it be used in any other way. Well my active lsd light always turns on when I start driving, but slip turns on when I'm hooning. Do i have to be concern abut the active lsd light always on? thanks

[GTS-t VSPEC]

Always on means it's not working, check the fuse panel next to the battery in the back.

[AeroGrace]

always on means not working, phew and I thought I had a problem with mine...the slip light is a diffrent matter though

[GTS-t VSPEC]

Yeah, the slip light should only come on when you loose traction, which in my case is all the time:D
