Default actually it was my friend who crashed it!

Hewas taking it to his show for a scratch on the bumper and just lost control... It's a hard car to drive, I don't knowif any of you have driven it.. but around these streets, and hills that clutch is NOT easy!

Default LMAO!!!! Mark Starr posted that? HAHAHA.. that's funny!

I'm pretty close to the guy who was driving it, as is Mark, but I don't think its right for meto call and ask questions. But knowing CHris, the driver, he probably gave it too much gas and popped the clutch while going up that hill

Default That does not look like some guy gave it too much gas while popping the clutch...

looks more like somebody was stone drunk or driving at least double to triple the posted speed limit..

Default he was going down the hill and someone pulled out of a stop sign.. he swerved to miss him

and hit the pole. He had only driven that car a few times and I'm sure he paniced when he saw the car pulled out.. probably slammed on the brakes and skidded. They did get him a new car. Frankly I'm just glad he's ok.. he's a really good guy
