Unhappy Another one bites the dust...

Got this off of another board. No word yet on the condition of the occupants.

Bent Evo

I'm guessing it's a kid. Just a guess.

Wow thats horrible. I hope things turn out ok. On a side note, it is so incredibly stupid to have race harnesses in a car without a roll cage.

Holy **** i've seen some pretty badly damaged Evos but that one takes the cake... what the hell was he thinking? There's no way that evo was going anywhere near the legal speed limit.

Drive safe everyone.

And people wonder why insurance rates go throught the roof for cars like the Evo. Please people I know you want to drive your cars fast but please use some common sense when doing it.

uhh, i just opened one picture cuz im on super slow dial up and all i saw was a bumper on the floor. did the tree consume the car?? shiet thats crazy. 494 feet of skid mark???? they were sideways for 500+ feettt?????????

wow, people really need to calm down with there cars. its amazing, too me the EVO is one of the most predictable and un-****up-able car cars ive driven. i was drivin my dads S2000 today and just gassin it a little on a rainy highway on ramp and got it sideways twice in a row....kinda enjoyed it but still it could lead to a dangerous situation. if people **** up drivin the evo that has enormous amounts of traction, i could just imagine them crashin after 2 blocks of drivin in an s2000.

494 feet of skid marks?

The state let the driver have a license! I think Colorado should be sued and any other state letting that kind of driver out on public roads.

Thank God no innocent people were hurt.
