If u want to know an example of poor driver in fast cars, then read on.....
A young pop star in Hong Kong owns a string of fast cars, & he wrote off all but one of them. This happened within a space of 3 yrs. First he wrote off a Toyota Altezza (a Lexus IS200 but with a 210ps trick engine) by crashing into parked cars outside his home, then he wrote off a Legacy GT-B when he reversed it into the Paparazzi's cars, then he wrote off a black F360M big time (cos of this, there's a court case against him for perjury of justice,due to a driver switch when the police arrived on scene). That 360M was spun round & hit the barriers. Shortly after this, he wrote off his Audi RS4 by crashing into the rear end of a Merc S500, on a motorway!!! Surprising cos there were no tailbacks & traffic was light. Lastly, he managed to spun a F355 Spyder round on a flyover when trying to accelerate away from the Paparazzi, & that piece of road is straight & weather was good that day.
Needless to say the only car intact under his hands is the 355.
Apart from that, he has a string of speeding offences (doing 155km/h in a 80km/h zone for example).
This guy is such a joke that ppl are expecting him to crash anytime.

Reffro,
Bernd Pischetsrieder crashed his McLaren F1 on a country road just outside the village of Hemhof in Bavaria. It went into a ditch.
Does anyone have any details of the F1 crashed by Ron Dennis with Gerhard Berger in the passenger seat?
Here's another one to chew on. Who crashed the first Nissan Skyline GTR33 in the UK?

Try the Tsing Yi-Lantau link if I were u, u can easily do at least 80mph there. Failing that, the Tolo Highway is good enough for 100+mph motoring, if not for the Gatsos.
Ron Dennis didn't crash the F1, he merely spun it into the kitty litter in Suzuka whilst Berger was next to him. Berger said it looked so funny, even funnier than Mr Bean.

When the Tolo Highway roadworks have extended it all to four lane then I'll happily crawl along it for you. You must keep some strange hours to do 100mph on it...
Thanks for the Ron Dennis stuff. Any ideas on the Skyline?
I think a few of you ScoobyNet guys were down at the Nurburgring on the 4-5th May. Do you know who the fella driving the UK registered Escort Cosworth at ridiculous angles in the rain was?

Who knows, there were only 2 ppl in the car (Berger & Dennis), & only Berger spoke abt the incident. Dennis was keeping mum abt things. Berger did also say Ron Dennis drove the car with the finesse of an Elephant.
