Guys,

Local news here in Ft Lauderdale, looks like 2 cars on the 35 mph A1A (beach rd). 2 pedestrians struck and killed. Porsche found abandoned looks like a 997 with a GT2 wing.

who ever owns that 997 is screwed.

the guy driving the other car will cop a deal to

get pardoned for his testimony against the PGuy

 

That's terrible. I wonder if it is someone on this board .

 

I bet it was stolen.

 

it's probably not stolen but they are going to say it was.

 

Yeah, the only way for the owner of that 997 to POSSIBLY get out of the situation is to play it off as though it was stolen from him in the middle of the night or something. Who knows...

 

that's why you can't street race.

even if you are good a driver the clown

in the next lane can take someone out

and you will be held accountable as if

you were the one who ran them over.

 

Very true,
I can't believe they chose to streetrace THERE, of all places. That has to be the most foolish thing ever.

Most people who do runs do it on the highway, where there are at least no pedestrians just strolling along the sides. You can still kill others, if you hit another car pretty hard, but the chances are much lower than compared to running off the road onto a sidewalk and mowing down various pedestrians - that's terrible.

 

Yup, brute HP is unpredictible at times.

 

Obviously a bad situation all over. Terrible end for the victims and condolences to their families.
And on a less important note, another black eye for sports cars, Porsches and street racing...

 

I'm pretty certain If it was my GT2 I'd lend it to no one. Stolen, maybe although I'd be wary of getting into a drag race attracting all that attention. Maybe daddy's car..down here quite possible

 

Oldest trick in the book is to report the car stolen. If he does, he screwed six ways to Sunday.

 

^^^ It's not a GT2. It has fog lights on the outside of the bumper. If I remember correctly, that stretch of road is bordered by a park on the east side of the road. The rich little east coast kids down there are embarrassing. They were probably leaving Elbo Room

 

I've just posted a note to https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/...ml#post2262403
about this, as I knew one of this victims.
Drive safely.

 

Damn, That really sucks.
