Re: Death of a Skyline (SpecR_EK)
Speaking of Skylines, there are some fabulous articles on the new Skyline as well as a look back to the older R32, R33, and R34 in the new EVO magazine.

example, most ppl here got their type r's for less than msrp. ppl lin the states had to pay more than sticker.

Re: Death of a Skyline (mr2)
Well friend of mine seen something similar with new Evo7 GSR that hit a pole probably 80mph. Whats bad the car was less then month old as it only came out that same month.
But he said it common alot these kids get too much power and don't know how to control it and get it wrapped around something because they don't know how to handle it.
Actually I would love to drive in Hakone mtn roads. To me who could careless about Intial D stuff but always loved rally style runs. I've ran on mtns 2-5K with my ITR and I wouldn't mind tackling something bigger. Yeah there is risk but heck there always risks in whatever you do these days.
The Yellow stuff looks like either water or rad fluid but the lights above look to be reflecting off it. Turning it yellow. Looks like hookspin wreck as most those all look the same damage wise if they didn't hit other cars in the spin. Usually happens on mtn roads where rear breaks loose and the driver over corrects and throws the car back the other way. I've seen two ITR's go off the gap this way. Lucky the trees stopped them. I've seen motorcycles fall 100 feet or more before they stop down the 1,780 foot drops.

Re: Death of a Skyline (SpecR_EK)
There was a kid in HK crashed his Altezzzzzzzzaaa not long ago @ "Princess Road". 6 ppl stuffed in that car and forgot if he was driving. He doesn't even have a license but his parents bought him that car. He got seriously head injury himself.
From the pic I saw it's running A038. He probably took that big corner too fast when he has so much extra weight on his car.
Well chit like that always happen in Hong Kong. I don't really have any feeling of it anyway(yes u can say i am cold blooded LOL but u will be like, "Oh, accident again eh...bah whatever" if u see that a lot). Not like there ppl here in Vancouver. Kids race, died and they got all nervous.

Re: Death of a Skyline (tjtruong)
My friend had an accident on one of those mountain roads in Hong Kong. He was having some "spirited driving" with a group of supercars going uphill in a brand spanking new Maserati, and some car racing downhill got into his lane and crashed into him head on. Luckily he was ok, but the Maserati was totalled.
