Don't know if that car was actually on slicks or not....looking at the thin sidewall, I doubt he was on anything like R6...
And in one of the videos, unless he has mismatched rears, the front tires look similar to a Fuzion ZRI, a summer performance street tire. The driver was counting on down force from that wing lol. But man, do these things bite hard or what? How many more mustang car show crash are we going to see!

You can't really blame the cars on the drag strips and race tracks. That's just crap that happens on the track. Things break, tires break loose, etc, etc. But the a$$ clowns on the street, well, if they're anything like the ones around my area, most of them are barely old enough to grow pubes.
There's two sides to this coin. What I think it is, is this... 1) These guys are all ex-Honda Civic owners. They're used to nailing the gas pedal to the floor and nothing happening and the car just going straight with the front tires pulling the car along. They get tired of not making power and being slow, so they ask mommy and daddy to buy them a Crustang. They then commence to ricing out said Crustang (because that's all they know how to do), by putting noisy exhaust systems on them and oversized ghetto chrome wheels wrapped in the cheapest rubber they can find. In other words, setting themselves up for failure. So now you have a young punk kid with a high powered RWD car that has only ever driven low powered FWD cars, still no experience, only knows how to rice out a car, and only knows to mash the gas through the carpet, and you end up with these entertaining YouTube videos. 2) These yuppy, preppy douche bags that buy a higher end Mustang with a LOT of power, or even worse, one with a super charger with a $hit ton of power and torque, they don't know the first thing about driving a powerful car, especially a RWD one, attempt to show off, boasting about the fruits of their labor, stab the throttle, and become famous with these entertaining YouTube videos. And honestly, the latest version of the Mustang is quite capable in the right hands. Good chassis, good suspension, great sounding, great looking (on the outside), and can actually handle surprisingly well. It's just the inexperienced douche bags that buy them and have no idea on how to control them. Also, to add to this, when I was on the on-ramp getting onto the parkway yesterday, I had some schmuck behind me in an early 2000's Mustang that kept romping on the gas, constantly correcting his direction going around the big left-hander as to stay on the pavement. He had a big induction hood on it, some big goofy rear wing, and what looked like 17" wheels with way too small, way too low profile tires. When we get on the parkway, I get all the way over to the left lane and he's two lanes over, comes along side me, then floors it. I hear tires squeal, look back over and see him sliding over to the next lane to his right, away from me fortunately, with a bunch of white tire smoke. He eventually makes it back up along side me, now in the lane right next to me. He looks over at me with a big grin on his stupid face and I just shake my head and keep going. And as usual, he looked to be in his early 20's.

Nope, its the pos car not the driver, look at all the videos all similar. I can attest, I had a shitty 94 cobra crash into my then beautiful FD3S almost 20 years ago.
PS: How the heck do you know these were former Honda civic owners? Red blooded americans do not buy foreign cars. lol |

LOL, a driver sits behind the wheel and operates the controls. If anything goes wrong it is not the car. Time for folks to start taking responsibility for what they do.

coincidence that with all these mustang shows or car meets we see all these videos? There are probably thousands more of these mustangs wipe outs we have not seen, just cause someone didn't catch it on video or there were no cell phones in the past. And its the most car incident crashes you will see when someone attends a car show or mee. Get your head out of your A**, thank God for YouTube lol |

^^^ Friggin Hilarious
I've asked this question on the Mustang forums as well as to why does the same shiit happen to so many Mustangs??? Are there really that many people who just can't drive a Mustang for shiit or are these cars just prone for wipeouts??? I have a SRT8 along with My Nismo and I have yet to see someone do this shiit enough that a guy can make a living off of making crash videos. I love the new Gt 350r, but I'd never but that or any Mustang other than a 80's Foxbody because every time I'm out I see them EVERYWHERE. I want to drive a Mustang to see if its the car or the driver? Anyone own a Mustang??? |
