Wet Weather Warriors

LTDHO · 26-09-2009, 08:37 AM

Everyone likes sidewards action around a bend, crossed up, smoke out the back, lots of fun.
Then there are the guys that drive better than professional and do it in the wet on suburban street.

Bus +1
XR6 0

Not that's not mid-drift, that's bent.

Person in back would be dead for sure.

Minor panel repairs on bus.

thats one bent falcon
high performance car, low performance driver?
that WON'T buff out.

Edited.

That actually appears to be blood on the back seat in the close up photo.

gcg2503 · 26-09-2009, 08:49 AM

If the impact was on the drivers side the bloke with the tattoo sleeve (who i am assuming to be the driver) may not be lucky enough to be sitting on the footpath looking sheepish

I hope he learns his lesson

That is a massive impact

PS: his MONSTA per the bulge wont buff out

Pretty Good Looking Front Cut He Still Has There,,haha

What a tool, rule no1 of driving like a knob in suburban streets... look for buses !!
I live on an intersection with a roundabout and know that sooner or later some jackoff will come through my fence... they just can't help themselves.

LTDHO · 26-09-2009, 10:21 AM

He was only person, lucky rear hit bus, otherwise he'd be dead.

Oh not high performance car IMO, only XR6 N/A

Rule #1 of driving like a knob in suburban streets - DON'T

Serial_Fool · 26-09-2009, 10:23 AM

Looks like a LWB Fairlane now.

kenz · 26-09-2009, 10:29 AM

I saw this exact same thing a few weeks ago but it wasn't a xr6, it was a VN p plater. And the bus won again!

XR Martin · 26-09-2009, 10:48 AM

I reckon he was doing 80 (if not more) to nearly split it in half

Riksta · 26-09-2009, 12:34 PM

Seems as if as soon as the drift lube hits the road, everyone's in Tokyo!

I learnt my lesson at the top of my street. Coming home when its wet, those corners are like driving on ice. Years ago in my 74 Corolla I ended up doing a 180 degree turn, also managed to do it in a front wheel drive Colt from giving it a little too much round the corner in the wet, now in the Falcon all I do is just let it glide with my foot on the brake, and don't accelerate out!

DBourne · 26-09-2009, 12:42 PM

wow, that is an impact and a half!

That's exactly what I thought when I saw it too.

Oh well, if anyone asks about "control blade" suspension; there it is.

Let's see.
Home job on the extractor installation (gasket goo)
Stupidly dumb and moronic oversize amplifier cables (how many amps? 60,000?)
Dirty coolant
Stupid homebuilt airbox
Low power steering fluid.
Dirty engine
Monsta written on a V8 boss bulge for an NA6
In summary; tool

Nope, not a member of these forums.

he looks like he is 50 years old too, is he reliving his younger days or what?

where was that stack?

Romulus · 26-09-2009, 01:35 PM

Damn lucky someone wasn't killed. Fool!

bob^ · 26-09-2009, 01:39 PM

ltd, mate, how many people on these forums have large power cables for their amplifiers, aftermarket air boxes, and dirty engine bays. Must make all of them tools too.
I know the bloke is a for what he has done, but your list is stupid.

Only after I pinch the front wheels off it

How do you think it happened?? Muppet slide around a corner, not looking out for any traffic past the corner, and Mr Peninsula collected him??

On another note, I used to travel on those buses all the time in my younger days. Nice to know they're nice and safe!!

Great minds think alike.

wulos · 26-09-2009, 05:36 PM

I'm sure we've all seen some quite major accidents (or more correctly crashes - not really an accident if it was caused by an error in judgement)
With the amount of extremist comments that have already come out in this thread, I can't really see any discussion leading anywhere apart from the obvious downhill slide threads of this nature generally take.
