Heard on the radio that it was a Skyline and the car was completely split in 2.

*sigh* here comes the publicity

Hard to say what caused the accident though, out in Gidgegannup there are some fast roads, so he may not have been doing anything wrong. Will have to wait and see... In any case, hope he rests in piece.

RIP.

Cue the usual knee-jerk reaction from the media.

car ripped in 2 means a good chance of doing something wrong but that doesnt take away from the fact that it is still sad. most of us including myself went through that stage, luckily most of us come out the other end - but i lost a mate on the way so news stories like this make me cringe

"A Bellevue man died last night after the car he was driving split in two after slamming into a tree in Gidgegannup.

Insp. Trevor Davis said the 23-year-old lost control of the Nissan Skyline he was driving on Toodyay Road near Roland Road about 10pm .

He said that after rounding a bend, the car slid for more than 70 metres before hitting a tree on the driver's side.

"The impact was so severe that the vehicle split in two, the front end coming to rest 16 metres past the impact point," Insp. Davis said.

The man died at the scene. It is believed speed was a factor."

Ouch....

He wasnt necessarily driving like a hoon, a few years ago i lost a friend to a similar accident, her car swerved and hit a tree but it caught alight, and im fairly certain she wasnt hooning.

It could happen to anybody.

Poor guy, RIP.

Guys i heard this was a 32 4 door with an rb26 in it. Would this be any member of this forum?

[bubba]

I hope it wasn't Luke (luke20t)

[Kandikid]

Thats 2min from my place... went past @ 7isn this morning....either im blind or they cleaned up the scene pretty well.

guys the same age as me too....got soo many freakin calls and messages from ppl.

[Curtis.Cow]

i had afew messages aswell, poor guy.

[KEN-R34]

A guy came up to me at work this morning and said "Good to see you alive and well"

Driver was the same age as me as well... RIP

[Nic_A31]

Poor dude.

What's even worse is that it was all the way out there.

Next car to drive past you if you crash could be half an hour away, then you've gotta wait for an ambo, and then survive the trip back to the hospital .... bad place to crash at high speed.

[R32 Driver]

Theres never a good place to crash at high speeds, chances are your dead on impact and the only place your going to go is the mortuary

RIP to the driver

[bubba]

Pfft that's not remote.. when I was up north over Xmas I was worried about hitting a cow, rolling the truck and bleeding out in the middle of nowhere.. hell, on Xmas day we went 11hrs without seeing another vehicle on the road.

No shit, but Gidge isnt exactly a busy area either even at 7 in the morning.

[ecentrix]

Condolences to the family nonetheless guyz.

[coFF33]

Anyone know who it was yet ?

RIP none the less

No shit, but Gidge isnt exactly a busy area either even at 7 in the morning.

Its fairly busy on weekdays on that road, everyone uses it, but sometimes it becomes fairly quiet,

anyone know who it was yet? :[
