Just saw an aftermath of a terrible accident at ECP...another WRX crash

[Sirbrian]

I think the cones are to warn drivers (or other WRX) not to hit those workers who are replacing the plants and the divider.

[Quantum]

why always WRX in accidents

[Maxus-MIFA9]

because waiting to :- Wrapping Round Something" (WRX) in its way...

[Mean76]

We don't get to see a R34, S13-15, let alone a hardcore Ferr/ lambo on the streets everyday.

 

What's the next? Evos, Rexs and now RXs, MXs, all these are pretty affordable for a tag 'sports car'.

 

Those conti sports car from BM, Merz, Audi are usually 30+++ drivers who have cash to spent on. Yes they do speed but unlikely reckless as to this stage.

 

Cars are designed to be able to do this, prevent that, reduce that, blar, blar, blar so eventually it's the driver's skill.

 

Weather plays a part but since there's many factors against speeding and yet the driver can get into such a mess ... one word

 

Stupid.

[Sirbrian]

well I think that a WRX is now more easily affordable. And thus also attract more people who has lesser experience in handling a powerful car. Thus just accident waiting to happen especially if decide to race just because one thinks one's car is fast and to show off.

 

Just like bro Chromas had adviced and shared his experience, it shows that if incident can happen to experience drivers, what more wannabes..

I didnt know that you are chromas's number 1 fan.

[Sirbrian]

no lar not no. 1 fan.

 

Just someone who admire others who have the chance to race/drift properly/legally. Always look up to these bro/gal as they have experienced so much more that most of us do at the wheels.

 

How I wish I can drift every weekend instead of just playing NFSU/GT2.

 

Anyway, I believe that with these type of experience, it help one to know how to react in time of emergency, just like learning advance defencive driving or something like that.

 

I think the govt should make sure that anyone who want to buy a "sports" car must have gone through advance lessons, you know...like GT2...class C to class A..

[Robin]

yah looks like the wrx was probably in front and the bonnet hit the divider

[Danielburgess]

There is an old fighter pilot saying by WWII ace Chuck Yeager,"It's the man, not the machine." I believe what some of the other forummers said is true, there are good drivers, and there are those few young chaps who are driving with their ego riding shotgun.

 

If I am not wrong, there was a fatal WRX accident along Pasir Panjang road some time back? Correct me if I am wrong chaps!

erm take your sunny and do a Rear wheel conversion lor.

 

If all you wanna do is drift, then all u need is a RWD car. Dont even need a turbo car to do that. There are some really cheap options out there to suit your need to go sideways.

 

Another option is to just buy a RWD ride in malaysia and just park it there for your hobby and leisure drifting pleasure.

 

I know for sure i wouldnt take my own ride and enter competitions just for the experience. It has never been part of my plan, nor will it ever be part of my plan. For fun, joy and laughter its okie.

 

That is why you dont see many local s15 in the drifting scene. Its just too damaging an experience.

 

(mumbles something abt car being banged up, tough to sell later on, known track drifting car)

 

I dont think I will stick to my current ride for long, 3 yrs and its fully paid for, I will give it up to my spouse if she wants it and then go source for my dream efini. Got to keep moving on.

 

Speaking of drifting, i think this thread has already drifted from its original intent.

[Sirbrian]

Good Idea.

 

And I think o are right...this thread is drifting liao.

 

I still hope if there is someone out there who can share what happened actually? Maybe the 2 drivers of the WRX and S15 can share too.
