360 accident TODAY on LIE

I'll host em

 

Looks pretty bad

I wonder where the driver went, i assume traffic was stopped, otherwise he would be stuck

 

That'll buff right out... a little Meguires NXT or perhaps some Griots Best in Show, and it'll look like new.


Seriously though, does it strike anyone as odd that the FRONT of the car is toast, not the back?

 

A good number of the EC crew was out there today and you had me very worried there for a moment. I just came back in from the run and saw your post. I hope the driver got out OK and unharmed...and thank god it wasn't one of the EC crew.

 

I just freaked out too and made some calls before seeing the pictures....

 

Hope they made it out ok, looks like the roof had to be cut off.

 

My mom saw this on the way home from the city, she said it was a yellow Ferrari. Lupe I knew you were on LI today and said a prayer for you, I'm glad your ok, but sorry for ever was in the 360, hope no on was hurt.

 

good thing nay nay jumped on his quick or his car could ahve looked like that

 

oh sh!! i freaked out seeing the title to this thread! hope the driver is ok.
and i thought my car was running hot!

drive safe guys, especially to all my EC homies.

 

we tried to call you, and we thought it was you.

 

we called u when we first heard it, no answer and hoped all is well. then saw the pic and its yellow.

 

Geez, that's horrible; i hope everyone's okay... i'm glad all you EC folks are alright, but i hope whoever was in that car is alright, too... Damn...

 

how does the front of the car burn? isn't the flamable stuff in back?

 

Isn't the master cylinder in the front?

 

I can only imagine he must have been carrying something flammable in the front compartment? With possible combustion if he ran into something? Agreed that it seems really strange.

 

or, he ran into the back of something & that gas tank exploded toasting his front.

 

wow

 

running into something explosive occurred to me as well, but for the amount of burning that it looks like happened, I would think he would have to have taken on a lot of fuel from whatever he hit. I don't really know about this kind of thing, though. Nor do I want to...

 

The fuel tank in the 360 is in the front if I'm not mistaken (weight distribution & space). I can't imagine it anywhere else in a mid-engine car. I know mine is up there in the 993 just in front of the firewall (not pun intended). If hit in a certain way, I'm sure that a small amount of fuel can ignite and cause this damage. A rare occurence of course...but as we see here, quite possible.

 

Ah. Ok. So this accident was in the EAST bound lanes and not the WEST bound lanes. I was looking for signs of damage as I drove home and did not see anything...

Glad our guys are OK. I hope the owner walked away.

 

Hey guys Glad to see every one is okay. Thank you for the prayer and John you also had us worry we could not get a hold of you. I hope the driver is well also, hate to see some one loose their car like that,,, real shame any way be careful out there we saw a couple of crazy things such as that large metal object on the road that could of damage our car along with serious injury to one of us. be safe. Pchop good seeing you againe.

 

soooo glad it was noone of u hommies. hopefully the driver of that yellow 360 is ok. god bless
