Phew thanks. Doesn't that feel better? I know I feel better.Originally posted by davidI
Sorry, it's because when typing really quickly it's faster to move your finger from T to E than from most positions to H. Next time I'll take more time in my typing to please you JDMmavericktR cause I'm sure you can't figure out what word I meant. If one of my university english prof's is marking this post then I guess I'm fucked.
haha I was just fucking with you man, but it's hard to tell over the internet unfortunately.
Good old Cape Town, South Africa. I was born and raised there!
2 doors and 4 rings
Simple laws of physics wouldn't allow the two cars to end up in the positions they are at.
Why not? What's makes you think it hit the slr head on??? If it hit the wheel well at an angle at about 40-60km/h I can easily see how it would end up like that.
I doubt that is a chop cuz of the reflections. Thats a toight car tho
Rev high, ride low.
i heard he got into another accident with his mclaren and it was written off.Originally posted by rage2

AFAIK, he sold the F1 shortly after the crash. But he has crashed and written off quite a few other cool/expensive cars at the track. Mr Bean roadraces .Originally posted by air_mikey

He was talking about cars and his racing hobby on Leno a few months ago hehe.

oicic
i guess i heard wrong then.
Not a chop.
I zoomed into the front right of the slr sharpened, brightened and increased the contrast a touch. You can definitely see some scratches on the fender and some dents in what looks like the plastic covering the bumper. The SLR is hiding its damage, I am sure the carbon fiber flexed and the returned to its normal shape but the supporting structures underneath are going to need replacing.
OMG u guys are still saying it's a chop? It's a friggin' real news article.

Minor Damage? He totalled the car...Originally posted by rage2
Remember when Mr. Bean rear ended that little Geo Metro with his McLaren F1? Very minor damage on the F1, destroyed the Geo Metro.
The beauty of Carbon Fiber (real shit!)

Carbon fibre doesnt mean "invincible"... its weight (or lack thereof) are much more of a factor than its strength. I remember watching mountain bike videos where you would see a carbon fibre frame literally shatter after hitting the ground a bit too hard
Hrm, are you sure that's the proper picture? I remember seeing the article years ago, and it showed minor damage to the front bumper. He also mentioned that the minor damage had cost him 80000 pounds to repair. IIRC, visually, it looked basically like a dented front end, nothing like that pic in that article .Originally posted by sputnik

The lady in the Metro would've been killed on impact of the McLaren looked like that after hehe.
