Default A story for all those 604 ITR peeps

from Richmond to Vancouver
drive east on alderbridge and take the Knight street bridge exit heading to Van.
in the middle of the exit (where the road bends) you will see (to your left) 4 tire marks and then YELLOW paint on the concrete safety barrier. so what happened... a type R lost control and swirved into the barrier. apparently he was going 100-120km/h and couldn't handle the exit. its sad to see people with a great car do stupid things... that guy deserves a for being so dumb.. i should tell my friend to hit him for me .. IF you CAN'T control it, then DON'T drive it!!!!! everytime i drive by there i think "what a DUMBASS"

are you telling me the greatest FF car on earth actually requires skill to drive!??

that the awesome leech like grip of its tires won't allow me to corner at whatever speed FEELS good?

Or that the braking system...essentially off the inaugural NSX ain't like God's hand itself stopping me with a lead foot slam of the pedal?

What kinda crap car is this??!

Never said you were bashing....
hahaha....

it's just people THINK they are driving what itr-j said....a freaking F1 car and then find out later... AFTER you've crashed the car....

that buying the R doesn't mean skill is included.....

If you didn't witness the accident, how can you pass judgment? Maybe the driver hit a slick spot or swerved to avoid an animal on the road. When I hear about an ITR getting into an accident, my first concern is for the driver, not the car. It's just an integra, not even yours. Why are you taking it so personal?

And now some gratuitous smileys for you.

driver was ok which is a good thing.. and stupid **** like that could have been easily avoided.. and its great that your first concern is with the driver.. you have a great heart, good job but still IF YOU CANT CONTROL YOUR CAR then DONT DRIVE IT!!!!!! and why do you care if i take it so personally, how do you know if my friend wasnt in the car? or if the driver wasn't just being cocky, arrogant and/or driving recklessly? it like parents complaining to city hall about their son johnny getting in accidents from racing, when its their fault for buying them the high powered bmw in the first place.

Wow, aren't you a hypocrite. What if you crashed your sister's ITR doing the same stunt because of un-favorable road conditions? Then your friend would be the one posting this exact thread.

Pushing your car to the limits on the streets

ive been around that same corner in my sisters ITR at around the same speed with NO problems at all

Too many people have been killed by stupid driving in our city. So many kids with fast cars... there is a feeling of helplessness... people don't know how to stop the carnage.

I think the driving age sould be 19. But even then some people have no concept of mortality.

So your saying I should sell my ITR and rip up my license? I drive the speed limit.

Sorry to say it's these young asian kids who have satellite families who fund them money for M3's and have no concern for there children's responsibility of driving the car safely.....
