    I hope that is not FChatter GRahal09 who has a white Italia twin turbo from UGR.

    Painful to see. Do you have some details. For example, is it a straight line speed run? If so, didn't the sponsors have "braking" line limits? Best

    Snarky remarks on Jalopnik in 3,2,1...

    Glad the occupants are OK.

    He sold it back to UGR 1-2 months after he bought it i.e. not his car nor accident.

    It makes sense that it wasn't GRahal09 driving. He's an Indycar driver, and knows how to handle nasty machines.

    Hey everyone. Wasn't me, but yes it was my old car. Bummer, that was a beauty. I heard the driver is ok, but man it was only the second day he had it! Kevin from UGR told me he had just sent the car down there. What a shame.

    Well, that is good news. There was concern. But too bad for whoever the driver was. Still us FChatter 458-types are a tight bunch.

    Indeed. And I am old enough to recall his dad's exploits and successes. Actually wasn't that long ago.
