I love it ! !

The best part of that website - is in addition to the photos are the captions.....

"" An Audi R8 and A7 was racing around together when traffic suddenly slowed down
ahead. The Audi A7 slammed on the brakes, but it was too late for the R8, which
slammed into the back of the A7, causing it to wedge underneath. ""


A great website where stupid driving gets global recognition !

Goes to show people with exotics are just as stupid as those in toyota's
screaming past us each morning and evening on the commute ! !

Thanks for posting....

Hondas too, you've got to admit. Even though both are top of the heap in popularity, it's almost always the latest models I see. Now, what happened to the older ones that are supposed to be so reliable? No car is going to last long with a stupid driver.

What gets me is how many Hondas I see that are driven by the backwards cap, "Slammed" crowd, MUST have several hundred thousand miles on 'em, & bless Pat, they're STILL running.... BADLY, but they ARE going.

We have a TRW Steering & Suspension factory here, & years ago, they made quite a bit of the components for the Dodge Viper. Dodge brought one of their pre-production prototypes down here for the engineers & workers to see & admire, w/the STRICT instructions to Take It EASY w/it.... One guy DIDN'T, & found himself shooting sideways & backwards across 5 lanes of traffic, nearly crashing it. The plant manager kept the keys locked up for the rest of its stay after that.

Camaro's are exotics since the price tag went outs Bubba's reach.....

When I was at Oklahoma State back before 1990 they made the first Corvette with
4 valves per cylinder and the first computer suspension things were made at Mercury Marine
which was in Stillwater, OK, They use to let us Engineering kids watch em run those cars
around the test track they had out at one of the lakes.... Pretty neat to see that stuff under
development.... We got to see that car, and engine way before most people knew it
was going to be out.....

They said when the car was going to come out that if they had engine troubles the dealers
were not allowed to work on them, they were going to pull them and send them back to
Stillwater to work on 'em..... I never followed up on it to see what happened with them...

I think it was because the school had a race track on it too for the Cowboy Auto Club.... I got to
run my Mustang around it once..... The guy behind me with a '88 prelude slid off the track
following me..... It was kinda funny..... He was pretty unhappy..... I think his car was bran-spankin-new....
