a 16 year old kid killed himself after rolling his car many times, he was driving to breakfast with his bro and friend, they were on a "narrow" road and he was trying to "pass" them, lost control, and flipped it many times.

So in other words he was street racing with his brother and lost control, stupid kids.

Didn't know if it was a GSX or not, but it was purple, and the 1Ga wing, and was crushed like a mofo.

:( poor parents
 
Mmmmm... I love the smell of Darwinism in the morning.

Just be glad he didn't take anyone innocent out in his stupid, stupid actions.
 
I must say i remember doing some pretty stupid stuff when i was 16. i agree its a good thing he didnt take anyone out with him, but its still an unfoutunate accident. Maybe some people will learn from this, but it will happen again:(
 
poor kid.. Died at such a young age. Still had so much more to come..

Accidents happen, so be careful out there guys. Think before you do it!
 
i dont get how you can rolll your car on a narrow road trying to pass someone. My rolling cage is comnig soon so i dont have to worry bouts that ne more.
 
^^^like i said they were prolly street racing and he was going like 100 went to pass the other kid and lost control or sumtin.
 
loosing control+ditch+highspeeds=many flips

Just plan sucky man. I hope it wasn't a turbo, no 16 year old should own a high performance sports car.

And before I get the usual arguments, 99% of 16 year old that want a high performance sports car want to go fast. Most 16 year olds are not that experienced at driving. More math here....

Unexperience+lotsofpower=not good.

Best wishes for the family. The brother must feel horrible....

I don't know about not having to worry anymore. I think roll cages are can do more harm sometimes if you don't have a helmet. It's just something hard to hit your head on if your rolling a lot.
 
Lol i want a AWD TSi when im 17, i jsut want it to pimp it out(love the 1G look don't tell me to get 2G, i would if i could afford it) and if i DO ever race it'll be this one kid who has a mustang(a V6..ooooo) and ill do it at the 1/8 mile track. Plus we get snow here and i want a car with good traction
 
Well that sucks... The kids brother must be in alot of greef right now after watching his kid brother wreck infront of him..

But thats why you dont do shit like that on dirt roads.. I will admit I have done some stupid shit on dirt roads.. But only when I was by myself and no one else on road.


No parent should have to see there kids funiral. (sp?)
 
^^someones grief is another mans joy..
its sad to see them go that young but serves as an example to allthem youngings outhere doing the same thing..as harsh as it sounds thats how it is..

my condolences go out to the fam...like ripperxx said - no parent should have to go to their childs funeral
may he rest in peace
 
why do young people drive so ####ing stupid? i mean seriously, im 17, have owned my talon since the day i got my license, and never got a ticket, and have only gotten pulled over once, most of my friends are getting tickets within the first 3 months of getting their license

before you get to rediculous speeds, look all around you, beside and behind you, if you dont know what all the cars are behind you then dont speed, never speed through an intersection etc...
 
^^ What he said. I've done my fair share of stupid driving and gotten a few tickets and totaled my first DSM because of it. People have experience see the young ones and say why cant you see your behaviour is destructive?

It really is sad to see shyt like that happen. I know a freind of mine just totaled his car but he got out ok. He was a new driver and he was shaken up by the whole ordeal. I can only imgaine his brother and family's feelings.

Condolences.

Any word on parts for sale?

It was TOATALLED the engine might still be in tact but from the pics it was crushed.

And im 15, soon to be 16(im driving) and i don't understand eighter, i would never put my life at risk, i would rather live and go the speed limit then do the opposite...

Just remember not all 16 year olds are stupid drivers, just most of them
 
first of all, the sadden, tragic death of teenagers shouldn't lead you to state "stupid kids." regardless, indeed it was a wreckless act and we should give our blessing to the kids. afterall we all do make mistakes, yet at the instant of that moment, we thought it was the right thing to do. be wise, be cautious

yeah seriously....i drive home from work thinking about these dumb kids doing dumb things and then i proceed to cut off a semi go 100mph then just for fun see if that ferrari wants to play tag
