It seems like we're seeing this more and more. I saw a white one totaled out over on TS.

Do you think that people are struggling with controlling the horsepower?

I saw one a few weeks ago with the front end smashed. I think I posted on here somewhere, no pics though. They seem to be dropping like flies.

I've been on some maneuvers, but that's a whole different story that's not appropriate for a family oriented site.

Probably that, and the lousy panhard bar rear suspension. These cars warrant a lot of respect.

Wow, I was holding my breath there for a moment until you posted it wasn't yours. Don't scare us like that!!!

Sorry to see another local one take a beating.

Respect the beast... or buy a VW Rabbit, please!

Speaking of respect, TG's car is sitting in the garage under a BMW car cover while he's working on changing up his work vans. He's trying to keep the dust off it while having the garage door open. I snapped a pic the other day. Poor GT500 having to wear BMW dust cover.

Driving these cars is like driving an Automotive Bucking Bronco but to me, that's part of the fun.

You generally see a lot of this in any performance car if it is the person's first performance car and they do not ease into things....over the years I restored and built up a lot of fast cars and several of them were written off within a week or two of me selling them to someone.
