I think the dude posted on Supraforums in that thread:
"Hey guys. Sad to say I'm the guy who wrecked the car...I'm ok minor injuries, 6 staples on back of head from my cage which paramedics said saved my life and 6 staples in my leg where the shifter plastic piece cracked on my leg...
So to clarify things!!! I was not messing around on the road..so many stories out there. There's no way I could hit illegal speeds in one block..I was getting some drinks and did a u-turn 1-2 and when I hit third gear it was high 4500 rpms around 12 psi maybe. Not flooring it and I hydroplaned/trying to correct I gassed it a little more and the rear kicked out I'm not sure what happened next all I know is I hit a pole on the driver side and I guess I swung around the pole and hit the stairs at the condo ...
I know what I have and how to handle it. Some things just happen! It's funny I never take my car out in rain but I was tired of staying in the room with no beer ... Sorry for letting y'all down! thank all of you for supporting me and not judging me for things that are not known facts
I'm not sure yet how the car looks until insurance adjuster looks. Maybe sell my motor ha cuz that's the only thing that seems ok."

I'm in the H20 Event section of the VW board reading about someone that had a $5k set of Fikse wheels stolen - car was left up on blocks.. someone else's car keyed.. sounds like it was a war zone over there this weekend.
Maybe it's better I took a pass on this one.

I don't understand why people can't just go to a car show and have fun and respect everyone's rides.
#20
Matt you're right I think a pass on this one was a good idea...the OC events for years get out of hand, crazy stuff happens and not everyone is respectful, it's ashame...when things like this happen it detracts from events drawing more people in the future...

Holy crap...literally! that's just insane

The roof rack is a throw back to the beetles with racks. A lot of the stuff is them trying to copy trends in the Europe car scene. It basically boils down to thousands of people trying to stand out and be different from each other or copying each other. To me its gotten rather ridiculous.
