I am enthusiast so I don't really like when cars crash. However he seem to have saved it.

Any idea what kind of 996 that was? I would say GT3 but it sounded deeper (than a stock one)

Looks like a pretty good save. He could have absolutely smashed into that wall...
Now here is a funny crash video

It's a GT3 for sure (996). The gtr was way off line.

Not so interested in seeing a nice car wadded up, but the thumbs up at the end gave me a laugh. I'm sure he meant "nice save!"

The GT-R didn't crash, it was a nice save. Problem was initiated by the slow traffic in front.

Well technically all crashes aren't exactly comedy shows...but I thought the "don't hit the wall, don't hit the wall" was a funny moment...funnier than a guy spinning a GTR...

Look at the title of the thread...relax.

I don't understand the comedy in this...I can't count the number of Porsche's that drove bad lines and spun out...(me included.) I agree with everyone above...pretty good save.

Yeah. That could have been a lot worse. Glad he didn't wreck it.
