hi guys

well after driving my missus home at 1am last night and cruising back towards the city, there were 4 series 1-2 skylines on the 3 lanes. that was almost like a mini skyline cruise . but as we were approaching caufield railway underpass, we saw an accident (city outbound) where there was about 5-6cars stopped (dont know how many was involved) but one of them was a white skyline in the middle median 180degree turned around.

that was such a pitiful sight too see especially when a skyline is involved (and others alike).

well what i would like to say is that i use that road almost every night and have seen some major fatal accidents there. you simply cannot see anything until deep into the apex by when its too late to hit the brakes and thats not inlcuding other drivers and the concrete barrier and light poles.

not to say im a wuss or anything but please, if you do want you 30secs of rush and go dragging, avoid that section as it is very dangerous and if the barriers/poles dont catch you, the coppers will since they are there very often.

lastly, does the other liners go on here? you know who u are, there was 3 of us side by side on an empty stretch of road.

****ing idiots.. well that is what happens..

*sigh* you can see why many are becoming just sick of the reputation attached to skylines now due to people like this

I agree that run is quiet dangerous if are not experienced at it and you dont know the bend very well.

i feel sorry for the blokes apparently plentypeople have accidents there.

I saw it too, white R33 [looked like a SII] and the other car was a Red Civic up on the median strip next to it - it didnt surprise me, but I was *annoyed* for the rest of us that dont act like that. I didnt see much damage, lucky for them, but its only a matter of time if you ask me. High powered rear wheel drive cars + wet roads + inexperienced drivers or hoons don't mix!

2 other cars were pulled up in the left lane with hazards on - but still should not have been there - its basically a 24 hour clearway unofficially [no parking / standing]. One was an AE86 corolla and dont recall the other car but I guess they were cruising together...

A timely reminder to watch your speed in the wet!

To be fair, it is possible that they weren't going all that fast but I didnt see it happen so...?

is that the S bend? cos a few weeks ago a evo 5 hit the wall doing 100km, marks and paint is still on the wall coming back from the asian umm pool joint. that was a shame to see..

LOL i know that S bend 2 well, nearly gone face to face with the concrete many times in my cortina.

why play there, that place sucks, the road condition is not good, cops might hiding up the hill. i saw that evo in one garage, pretty bad, it was totaled.........

Yes, the S bend.

I don't get what is so hard about THAT S bend - I actually enjoy driving through it, always have, always will [careful when wet of course]. I don't actually understand why so many people have accidents there - I am guessing it is mainly "inexperienced driver" based. Good thing the cops are there then - usually a booze bus but often TOG cars too.

Elad, lol i think we went thru that S bend toghther one night, if ur the black gtt wit white rims, do u remember a white r33 with gold rims? it probably wasnt, but i remember it spooled out of that bend real good

[NismoR34]

Guilty

That would have been me.

How can an Evo 5 stack if i can go around there at a *legal*cough* 70km/h ?

And i have a boat, and it has much more advanced handling than i?

That corner is great, but i agree you gotta know it... to some extent though. Why would you approach a corner fast if you didnt know it?

Stupidy comes to mind here heheh!

I aint had the car slide, had a fair bit of a squeal though at times, all within the limits of course.
