I would love to find out the speed of these accidents. How delicate is the GT-R? Both of these make the car appear totaled.

The thing is that new cars are designed for the front end to absorb most of the impact. Cars are made to fold up. The most important part is that the cabin in intact. You know this car was designed with safety in mind. It will score a high head on crash test rating judging by these pictures.

With the weight, I think people just have no idea that the GTR can go very fast in a short amount of time.
-------------------- -------------------------------
Advanced physics and engineering courses introduce the resistance calculations that actually describe the way objects move. Road resistance (traction, grip), wind resistance (downforce, drag), drivetrain resistance. You would fail physics class if you could only pull out an acceleration calculation (power/weight) on the exam. Don't pretend to know physics, it doesn't suit you. --Norm McAverage |

Word is the owner was on his way to Sepang. I bet he was headed to the F1 race and got way to excited showing off.

wow, Asian people can't drive ... LOL I had a Asian lady wreck a Honda fit into the front of my building... I so wanted to say " you broke it, you bought it" LOL .... Anyhow... Both black too.... Hmmmm Asian women do have a stereotype in America that they are below average drivers. And it may have some truth in it. My mom is asian and she is not a good driver. However, it would be idiotic to make the generalization that "Asian people can't drive" based on this one wreck. We do not know if an Asian was driving the car when it was wrecked and we do not know if it was the driver's fault. I'm guessing you were being sarcastic......heh |

As with all super cars: Handle respectfully or it will bite.
These should be lessons to those who feel that the GT-R has so much control, it is still in the hands of the driver to determine where the car goes. None of this point and mash the pedal shit.... -------------------- "The GT-R shares the assassin's single-minded sense of purpose.It is brutally cold, clinical and calculating." ---- Evo mag's Car of the Year.
