    285 has the SHITTIEST roads for racing. Everyone knows this. Speeding on 285 is a death wish.

    The SUV probably couldn't get out of the way fast enough because its a big old POS. Had they been in a car they would have done better. But wait no, SUVs are safer...

    To the dead guy who drove the corvette: FUCK YOU, I hope you burn in hell.
    Morons like you increase insurance rates for guys like me.

    ATLANTA - DeKalb police are investigating whether street racing is to blame for a wreck that left two people dead on Interstate 285.

    Witnesses said a Corvette and a Mustang appeared to be racing south of LaVista Road when one of the cars slammed into a guardrail around 9 p.m. Tuesday.

    Two people in the Corvette were killed.

    Two others in an SUV were rushed to the hospital with critical injuries.

    Police identified the dead as 20-year-old Brandon Phillips, the driver, and 18-year-old Jordan Makanani.

    Authorities have located the driver of the Mustang who they believe witnessed the accident.

    dont worry about the repost. alot of ppl in the WL dont frequent the KF. i saw the traffic on my way home from work, obviously not knowing details. i thought to myself "yeap... something fucked up happened right there!"

    and wow, after seeing the pic of the vette, its no wonder they died! there's hardly anything left! i hope the 2 ppl in the suv have a speedy recovery. its a shame they were involved in this.
