I could tell it was going to end badly when he was blatantly cutting into the oncoming lane to get through the turn. Its not a race track. If you cant hold the line within your lane, youre going way too fast.
You're right, it is an E46. Either way, it's too much car for 99.9999999% of kids of driving age.

Justin Beiber looking kid crashes BMW....and once the crash is done, the look on his face is like "fuck, can i rewind time a little bit" OR "I hope this is a bad dream".....

i honestly wonder, do people upload the video when they crash or do dumb shit like that? I would delete the video in shame....

Cutting the apex didn't concern me.. he carried too much speed on the rises and kept lifting throttle on the corners. I was just waiting for that dumb fuck to eat it.. I bet he wonders why his car didn't turn....


Your wheels weren't touching the ground genius!!!

I bet the stupid fuck is going to buy a GT-R now. I hope he doesn't kill anybody being a dipshit.

Also, the way he clasped the steering wheel.. that's gold Jerry.. fucking gold.

Fucking 12 year old.

Also, from the bellyaching of his passenger.. I'm guessing it was the passenger's bimmer.

For the life of me I couldn't get the Potroast reference. But after watching the vid it totally made sense

The inexperience shows.... hands set way too high on the steering wheel, he's leaning forward way off of the seat, and bracing himself on the steering wheel as he's flying through the air.

Call me a sick fuck but I kind of miss that kid. His posts were hilarious.

Yea, fries could be a bit....odd. But he knows quite a lot about the 2G and has one of the fastest 2G TLs out there. Hes running 12s at altitude.

Jblue has been around for years, and knows the 2G CL like the back of his hand.

I know that fries was perma'd because of another issue (personal attacks towards a mod IIRC), but that stemmed from being banned due to a run in with Potroast (who managed to not get banned at that point).

Potroast was good at making himself look like the victim, and I'm happy the mods/admins finally picked up on that. Im just pissed that they perma'd a valuable, long-time member in the process (jblue).

No, most of it was deleted. It also took place over many threads.

Potroast sure did like to hit the mommy button. What sucks is so much pwnage was deleted in those numerous threads. Jblue will be missed.. maybe we can sign a petition to get him back? too late? I know several members who have been perma'd but are back.

I just googled GT-R MSRP. Grabbed the first number I saw. Also.. @bitching and moaning about a $10k difference.

Okay, $97k + TTL. That's roughly $105k, not to mention your $2500 insurance premium.

Might as well make it the black edition.
