repost of vw vid

ok i know we have all seen this sad video and i know its a repost but i thought i would show it again because some of my friends know the kid who owned this car. it was supposedly built by adrenaline motorsports and had about 450whp.

that is the link to the vid for thoes who haven't seen it. i know it happened in syracuse ny and im 1.5 hours from there. i saw this sad video the day after it happen. it really hit home because my brother had almost the same dam car and he got into a really bad accident and his was burnt worse then this one. so sorry for the repost but i just thought u might like to know.

damn i have never seen that video before. thats horrible but at least they didnt get hurt. since you have friends that know the guy whats he doing/ going to do about it. build a new one or just buy a car and leave it stock? i think after something like that i might just stick to stock cars from then on.

Jesus Christ! That poor car. Thank god no one was hurt. It's only a car, that can be replaced. Im glad to see the guys had enough common sense to get out of there and stop trying to stop the fire when it got to be too much.
