Thankfully no one was hurt apart from possibly the drivers pride, but the fact still remains that the driver was driving beyond his or his cars abilities for that road at that time.
Driving like a tool is still driving like a tool regardless of the badge on front...

I've long since retired from picking fights on online forums, but there's a few more words to be said before I'll let this one lie.
While the majority of comments have indeed been fair, mocking the Porsche driver's skills and posts like "they have enough money not to worry about the repair costs" are not.
Think for a moment how you'd feel in the guy's situation. I bet you'd be ****ing gutted. Now imagine how you'd feel if undisguised photos of your mishap were plastered for posterity online. To add insult to injury, thanks a nice bit of rabble-rousing by OP, this thread has now gone viral elsewhere.
But it's all just fine isn’t it, because it's provided a moment of entertainment for you, hasn’t it?
There's a reason why I have a low post count and that's the quality of (some of) the people on this forum.

Unfortunately so many people jump to conclusions when you drive them but not always is the assumption correct !
I therefore agree with post above

Wealth is relative. I am massively wealthy by vertue of a loving family and good friends.
£1500 on a Scoob for some people is a fortune and can take ages to acquire.
To get back to "plenty" and his massive over reaction to the banter that as been posted with regards to the Porsche driver. Why as he dedicated so much time and effort on drawing attention to himself?
He/she must be very naive to think any malice was intended. I guess he put money on England winning the Six Nations as well?

Haha love the emoticon usage !!👌👑
Well it seems I've been getting a bit of flack for posting the photos on here, I posted it in the welsh section as I know a lot of you know the road and would find it hard to believe three (yes there were three "supercars" involved) cars could get into a pickle like this. I knew everyone was ok and not hurt so deemed it ok to post.
Being a local chap I am very aware of what happened (from
My own eyes, and others who I know witnessed the occurrence) , I don't however want to cause any aggro to the owners involved, so i won't go into any further detail.
Mr plenty and all the others who jumped on the wagon to have a go at myself and others should think before they post, in my eyes the circumstances warrant a bit of banter for what happened, however I have no intention to make malicious posts and upset anyone.
Whatever anyone else thinks , I still think he's a silly billy for what happened and I'm sure he does too. Let's all be friends now ay 💏

I'd like to see someone try to nick a set of those wheels!!!
Even on the workshop floor with handbrake on, someone in the drivers seat with foot hard on the brake and the proper Porsche 4ft long torque wrench / bar, those centre lock wheels are blimming on there (450-500Nm ish)
