Did you see the damage on the yellow s2k which was said to hit the tree at 80mph? The damage looks minmal for such a high speed.

I think that was a typo. The silver hit the tree at 80mph.

The yellow wiped out a street light before coming to rest against a tree. Street lights are pretty flimsy.

Clowns like this kill innocent people (like the passengers) and raise our insurance rates!

Hopefully the survivors will be okay. Nonetheless, I hope that the reckless surviving driver never shares the same road that I do.

I recommend this thread be placed as a permenent NOTE at the front in the Street Encounters forum to serve as a reminder of the potential consequences of such activity.

OMG! Even if they were "street racing," it was an accident and no one here has the right to judge another. Sympathies and prayers to the victims.
