December in Germany with winter tyres

 

 

Looks like that one ran up under a truck.

 

11 days ago...

 

I can't bear to look at that. Hope it's not yours and that the occupant/s were ok.

 

It was a quick rollover....it should buff right out.

 

I keep suggesting Xpel, but some people just won't listen.

 

Ouch, yes I see now, actually looking at that it worries me a bit. I am a tall person and the amount of collapse in the windscreen and it also looks like the rollover bar has also collapsed behind the seat scares me. I don't think there is anyway I would survive a rollover without at the very least severe head injuries, probably wouldn't survive at all.

 

A Jaguar F-Type and an Audi R8 were involved in a reckless street race in the residential streets of Kunming, China. The cars traveled at speeds exceeding 150 mph when a third vehicle pulled out of a driveway and into the path of the Jaguar. Unfortunately, the Jaguar did not have enough time and room to react and avoid the car. The Jaguar F-Type collided with the passenger car, struck a curb, tore its roof, and threw its driver, 28-year-old Tao Lung. Lung was run over by a second car and was killed instantly.

The terrible Jaguar F-Type crash occurred at a busy area of Kunming city of China's Yunnan province. According to residents, street racing has been a menace for some time. Local police have warned that it was only a matter of time before someone loses their life from the dangerous antics. However, the police have failed to reign in the growing trend of irresponsible driving. One local criticized the police for failing to uphold their ethical responsibility as law enforcers: "The people here who drive fast are rich the police don't want to tackle them."..........

When police arrived at the scene of the accident, authorities have decided not to cover up the body. Instead, they left the mangled victim, Tao Lung, for the crowd to witness. The decision was extremely effective as a crowd rapidly grew over an hour.

 

Nice. Sounds like he was also not wearing his seat belt.

 

Yah. I was a tad concerned as well when I first saw the picture and read it was a fatal. Thankfully the parameters of the crash are far beyond any thing I would do.

I need some pants like that - my car gets all the attention

 

I don't care who you are...get the he11 off the car!

 

Yes that's what I was thinking, that thing is alimunium, don't sit on it.

 

As for the Rock... he can dent my car anytime. That guy is a class act and sweetheart. If you don't follow his social stuff, he is unpretentious, funny, kind, and very real. ANYHOO.....

I am 6'6". I am not going to race my car like that kid. Your comment about the windscreen didn't spook me as much as the broken rollbar.

So.....

How do you roll an F-Type. Best way to not do it is to know the extreme edges of your car, right? So how to roll it? =/

 

Did a canyon drive this weekend with some friends.

 

Looks goaded where it belongs, up front!

 

Awesome!! PCH? Topanga? Kanan Drive? Mulholland??

 

None of the above, we went east this time up San Gabriel Canyon and down GMR. Was about 15 cars total, luckily no rain.
