such a shame...another srt wreck

Post by refect » Thu Jun 14, 2007 1:11 am

this just recently happened in my area. i dont know any of the kids, but damn hopefully they end up being ok... http://www.local6.com/news/13493665/detail.html

new motto for the srt....."parents, want to kill your 16 year old? buy them an srt-4!!" i really feel like more than half the tragic crashes that happen in these cars are kids ages 16-18 which is why i say this....

"(It was a ) little souped-up race car. These Dodge SRT Neons are turbo-charged. Unfortunately, we work a lot of crashes on these type of cars. It's too much power, not enough car. Kids get involved in them and think they can street race anywhere, and that's the big problem we have right now," Florida Highway Patrol Trooper Jason Brooks said.
Too much power + Bad drivers = lots of wrecked SRT's.

It's a shame when things like this happen but it will just make my car more valuable as time goes on. Sorry, I shouldn't be cracking jokes but it is true. Plus, it gave me a new quote for my sig. :lol:

stupid parents, stupid kids, stupid drivers all make my car what it is today...expensive to insure. And a little rare...

I hope they are ok. My guess is they aren't...the SRT was made for speed not safety

Why does everybody miss the point about crashes like these, it is not the car or the fact that he was young but the fact that he cant drive that killed him. You cant put a person that spent (in PA) 40hrs at the wheel of moms 91 camry into a car like that and expect the car to react in even a similar manner, you spend 1/2 of your life in a kart and you have a better understanding of car control. With that being said I'm sorry for the familys. Pick up this months sport compact car for a very good new liscencing policy.
