350z meet in North Ga today and apparently a guy tried taking a turn faster than the gravel would allow and believe me there was lots of gravel...

Glad he's alright. Car can be replaced, not life.

When we had a MAzdameet at pine mountain, a guy in a protege spun round and ended up on a ledge like that with his front passenger wheel dipped over the edge, he was lucky, but when we looked down where he would've gone, we saw a not-so-fortunate graveyard of silver accord body pannels (moslty riced out aftermaket plastic stuff and one single altezza tail light. also found a windshield wiper wedged into a tree and stuck like a dart in a dart board. the place looked a lot like that one, except there were patched of mud caked about 1cm deep instead of gravel. We hit past it @70 mp/h in the wet. Pretty crazy stuff.

The first scion meet I ever went to this guy brent who was a total ricer douche bag who paid "30k" for his tC decided he was going to be the next tokyo drifter. It was a meet that was being hosted by the Scinergy guys at The toyota dealership up by lockheed. We rolled up there like 30 deep and had to park on the side road next to the dealership so most of cut through the dealership and parked while the rest went down the street and went to the cul de sac and turned around and parked. Well brent thought he was going to be cool and go halfway down the road turn wide cut back and pull the ebrake. Needless to say the car went down the embankment and hit the fence. The fence was the only thing that kept him and the poor guy riding with him from falling 75 feet to their death.

sorry to see the carnage...I have been up in the mountains several times and know my limits...it can get away from you real quick around some of the turns...one of the guys that went with me last time ended up in a ditch...drive carefully guys...this ain't no video game up there though it feels like it...

That doesnt look like a "freak" accident. Sucks for him but too bad he took the risk. Plus that wing is gone form the world hopefully now. 1 less wing makes god smile.

The guy is alright. He is in the 6th pic or so where the wrecker is there, he's in a black shirt laughing. I've talked to him around mcdonough a few times and he always went to those Summit monday night car shows. He's a cool dude, sucks about the car.

Looks like that happened on 180 heading toward 60, just before the summit.

he is alright...he said his dad is going to go get him a new g37 today, must be nice....

he might know how to drive but he wasnt thinking when he was going that fast on 180 after a bunch of rain. of course the roads are going to be clear of "pea gravel" :rolleyes: . always blaming mother nature and not their uneducated decisions.

SiRed94
01-28-2008, 05:56 PM

because... knowing conditions of the road, and checking out a course before you run it are a part of driver skill as well... it's not just pure physical ability...

TheDarkRacer
01-28-2008, 06:49 PM
meh, i read some of the thread, and it said there was a group(key word) of 350z, he was like #3 and they were a bit ahead of the main pack, they were going about the same speed, and he hit the gravel while the others didnt... so not a bad driver....

I'm sure he was a good driver, because most everyone who throws some mods on a car and heads on a mountain run automatically qualifies as a good driver... it's not like driving well is something that's acquired through a ton of track time and instruction.

That sucks but oh well. Why does he have all those go fast mods and stock brakes? Not even stock brembos. No that wouldnt help much on sliding gravel.......but still. And why do people think its ok to flying through the mountains when its wet? Im sorry i like the twisties just as much as anyone else, but im not gonna go just throw myself in danger of totalling my car or killing myself. I dont need that much of a rush!
