sam5709(aka SLOWPOK3) Last Seen: Today, 01:25 AM ;)

Nah not him.

I witnessed the crash, it was the most horrific thing i've ever seen in my life. No one walked in front of him, he came flying over the bump in the middle of hepburn/wanneroo intersection and completely lost it. He literally flew over the median strip and hit 2 cars and i was behind them...

I don't know that intersection, as I live SoR, but if this quote is right... then I guess it's the same kinda accident that happened over High Rd in Riverton. Where a car load of kids died in a BMW when they lost it from going too fast over a bump and hit a tree.

Like those bump/dips in the road that, if you go over at a decent speed, they make your guts feel weird...

like that road that runs around the back of Lake Herdsman - Powis Street turns into it, Haydon Bunton drive or something, any more than 80 kays on there and you almost go airborne.

Although I have not been past there in a few weeks, I do not recall that intersection being that lumpy. Nothing like wanneroo road and green street, that one is psycho if you come from walcott and cross wanneroo into green street

Jon Sanders Drive?

Man that road has been fked for a long time. I had to use that road for 3 years... :(

Just the comments on the story from PerthNow site.

http://www.news.com.au/perthnow/comments/0...37-2761,00.html

Not surprisingly many people are pulling their keyboard warrior attitude & blaming P-platers & high performance cars

again... :(

I know makes me angry cos I'm on P Plates :(

I didn't kill anyone except for a pole... and my bunky was commiting suicide anyway so wasnt' my fault *hmph* lol

Of course, there's no specific details of the accident, at present it's hearsay and already people jump on the hoon/p plate wagon i'm making a comment on there now

Everyone on that site will blame High peformance cars and p platers, not all p-platers are tossers tho and on that news one it dosent actually say he was a p plater.

Doesn't look like my comment is going to get posted :( I went on a mini-rant about everyone jumping on the "hoon hating" bandwagon when it was actually our shitty road conditions that appear to be the major contributing factor.

I know the intersection, it's dodgy as. I've gotten air through there heading east at only 60kph.. scary shit!

Simon (R32-GTS) smashed a hole in his sump on the same bump.. lucky the workshop is only 100m away lol

heys guys,

my dad rang me about the accident this morning. My olds live in Kalgoorlie now and dad was in perth and saw it all from a little distance. He said the "silver 4 door skyline" overtook him alitle way back but just in traffic not speeding and then in the distance the car swerved and hit sumthing and it launched the car over the medium strip and it was all she wrote really. Worst thing is dad mentioned a large S sticker on the left rear window of the car with two letters underneath it. Heart sorta sank abit then cause mentioning that when he doesnt even know who SAU is is scary. Then made me think the sticker is prolly very common on cars and may not be a member of the forums.

Either way RIP :( doesnt look like it was speeding or hooning or anything, just bad luck but im sure there will be pollies whinging about hoons over it

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
