Thanks to Gran Turismo boy, the car was FUBAR'd....and I have the video of the car going on the tow truck. Unbelievable carnage, I hope the kid's insurance premiums go up by a factor of 1000.

So in short, not only did he destroy one of the best cars ever built, he effed up the opportunity to put a half naked **** star behind the wheel.

If you were MY kid, you wouldn't drive until you were 21, moved away, off my insurance and out of my state. Let's just say that Gotham knows what's going on with their cars every second of every day...and the kid painted a rosier picture than the reality. Speed, plus downshift mid turn = chaos.

Stick to your Dodge Neon and stay away from cars of inherent value...you have no business even being around them and thanks for effing up the opportunity for us to see *******-a-bouncing in the world's greatest sports car. Noob.

Bobby - you don't have a GT2 so when you do he will show you his : ) Thats the impression I am getting. In fact I don't think you own a 997TT because those pics are not yours are they? We are all posers..

I don't understand why your father would even let you drive the GT3 knowing you can't even drive stick! Are you sure you didn't take it without permission? Your claim of only going 70mph is probably bull**** too, you were probably going 100mph+ to lose control that bad!
i completely agree with this.. how pathetically irresponsible he is to be driving something he shouldnt, **** even if he rented a damn cheap *** rear wheel drive stick car and he crashed it hes still an idiot for 1. driving something thats not even his 2. not knowing how to drive a manual 3. asking about getting a turbo. I feel very sorry for his parents who are probably taking responsibility for what this moron did. You deserve no mercy!

Hey ai91, please tell me where I can get enough money to rent such a car. I'm 19 and it only took me about 4 years of hard work and dedication to get a nice 928 S4...I think you need to understand that most people work a long time or most of their life to be able to own such a car and you come in here saying yeah I wrecked one cause I'm a idiot and now I want to wreck a sacred GT1 engined turbo?? Porsches are pricey ,because they should be for people that have worked and earned the right to be able to own and operate exotic machinery. Just my thoughts...

Coming from a 20yr old car get some seat time with a stick in a lesser car. When i was 16 i got my first car a mazda rx8. I thought i was mario andretti! Take the time to practice i got myself in some very scary situations with 240hp and a fairly forgiving chasis. I have driven 996s and there alot of car. Take the time to learn and the rewards will be ten fold.
